Has Wayne Brady been in the show yet? He wrapped up Let's Make A Deal early October then toured immediately after. Would like to see the show with him in it.

When I saw the show a couple weeks ago.. Lin was in the early show and not in the late show. I had rush tickets for the late show and got to the theatre a little early and was super excited to see Lin come out to the stage door from the early show. But then he wasn't in the late show. Still great though and James Monroe was in the late show. I loved the show. Would have liked to see Lin perform but part of the fun is not knowing who you will get or what will happen.

Don't hold your breath hoping to see LMM - I think he's done at most a couple/handful of appearances at most, most notably the night before the official opening. JMI has been a fairly constant presence. Chris Jackson, less so, but is there more frequently than LMM.
James Monroe Iglehart frequently appears in the 10pm shows after he's done performing in Hamilton.

Yes, he has been. A friend went a week or so ago, and Wayne Brady made a guest appearance.

I saw the 7PM show on 10/27 and had Chris Jackson and Wayne Brady as cameos.

Jackson and Brady were both in the 10PM this past Saturday. Brady pretty much ran the show, but of course he has so much Improv background it makes sense that he would.

Lin & Chris Jackson did the 8PM show on 10/25 - Anythony Ramos was in the audience

Was anyone there last night? Apparently Ian McKellen and Helen Mirren came up on stage!

I was at the 10pm last night and that didn't happen there. Can't speak for the 7pm though. If that happened, that's amazing.

It's not letting me edit my post for some reason - but as soon as I replied, this popped up. Looks like the 7pm had a great show!

Oh and on topic - James Monroe Iglehart was the guest last night at 10.

@thedrybandit Who was there for the 10pm show last night (besides the regular cast)?

VotePeron said: "No cameos at the 7pm show on 11/4, but standby Andrew Bancroft/Jelly Donut joined as the 5th member and stole the show, so that was nice. But seeing names like Wayne Brady, LMM, and Chris Jackson in the Playbill as potentials, you can’t help but be disappointed.
Show was great, except the Second Chance audience story they picked was Not Good and they should’ve ditched it immediately, but instead it went the whole 20 minutes. The finale definitely made up for it though."
Tonight is the Disney on Broadway 25th Anniversary Equity Cares Concert... James Monroe is performing and I wouldn't be surprised if LMM was in the audience (I wish I was... thought about flying in for it but.. $$$ ha.)
I was super impressed at the show I went to how they seemed to really know which words / stories to go with and which ones to ditch. I guess there has to be a flop here and there but that bit has SO much potential it's sad they went with a poor choice.

When I saw the show, the "something you did today" section ended up being a really boring story, but the cast rolled with it, and they made a ton of jokes about how boring the story was (one of them commented "this is how white people live!"
Actually ended up being pretty enjoyable regardless.

I was there and it was absolutely delightful. They actually brought them in late so that they wouldn't cause too much of a ruckus pre-show so it was even more surprising when they brought them up on stage. Loved it.
