Full Cast Set For THE INHERITANCE On Broadway — Page 2

rjm516 said: "I'm so so happy and relieved with this announcement. Kyle Soller & Andrew Burnap gave performances beyond anything. I completely believed they were their characters and it feels like they're in my heart forever. When I saw it I thought Burnap was a lock for supporting actor win and he wasn't even nominated so I hope regardless of where he's placed he earns a nomination, along with Soller and Hilton.

Redgrave was by far the weakest part of this so this is a really good move. I didn't love Levine in Part 1 but he definitely won me over in Part 2."

I felt similarly about Levine the first time I saw it, but I quickly realized I didn't like ADAM but loved Leo. The second time I saw it I really saw what great work he was doing with Adam that really sets up what he does with Leo. It also underlined my theory about the characters that I won't spoil.

I was also shocked Burnap didn't win every award under the English sun because Toby on the page is outright mean nightmare monster person but Burnap added such a charm and grace you wanted Toby to like you even though you know he's a monster.

Part of me does wish the three leads (Toby, Adam/Leo, George) were played by out gay actors, but I'm also excited to see their performances again and again.

Any idea how this is selling? The discount codes don't apply over weekends, and I will be in town on a Saturday and was hoping to marathon the 2 parts. Wondering if it's worth risking TKTS/rush.

Same here. I already voiced my opinion on this on other threads before the cast announcement. Now that the cast has been announced, I am curious who the understudies are and whether they are out & proud. Would definitely buy a ticket again if they perform.

Now I feel more grateful that I saw Redgrave perform in part 2 last December!

I don't know how many performances Redgrave missed but she missed the second press night according to these West End reviewers:

I've done more research on Lois Smith since I was unfamiliar with her work (didn't work yet back in 1996 when she was last on Broadway) and am excited to see her perform on Broadway!

I'm also curious whether parts of the play have been cut so each part would be less than 3 hours (otherwise producers will have to pay overtime...) Some West End reviews mentioned the play didn't have to be 7 hours long.
