I’m aware any new production of a show has to have auditions, including transfers to broadway, but I found it strange they were having auditions for only the child roles. Is it likely one of the young actresses already over grew? It’s the ninth one down on the list. https://www.broadwayworld.com/article/Upcoming-Equity-Auditions-Sunday-Nov-26-20171126

Maybe the girls in Denver are local? I believe that was the case with one of the young Fionas who didn't transfer to Broadway with Shrek.

No idea. When I saw the show in Denver back in September, Mattea Conforti (who was in Sunday in the Park with George back in Feb-Apr), was great and looked the part!

And Matilda on Broadway, which she was great in.

If you guys would actually click the casting breakdown and read, you'd see that they are "(SEEKING FUTURE REPLACEMENTS ONLY)" because children grow fast.

“All roles have been CAST from the previous Denver production. Only seeking possible future replacements at this time for the Female CHILD roles of YOUNG ELSA and YOUNG ANNA.”
Goodnight, thread.
