Cheyenne Jackson as Sky (Hubba hubba)
Elena Shaddow Or Sarah Uriarte Berry as Sarah
And I'd love to see Kristin Chenoweth as Miss A
So far that's a pretty good looking and talented cast!

Hmmm... I'm actually liking Elena Shaddow as Sarah never thought of it before.
I really hope they were courting McCormick for Nathan and not Sky. He just plays everything with a certain layer of smarm (yes, and I'm going off more than Will and Grace)... Sky is cool and slick but not smarmy. Messing would be a fabulous Adelaide but she seems to be trying to have a thriving television career. She's probabaly looking for a bigger role than Sarah Brown but I wonder if Anika Noni Rose is a possible cotender for it.

I think McCormack and Butz would be great in either role and Chenoweth would be a fantastic Adelaide. I don't know about Sarah though.

Rachel York as Adelaide would be FIERCE.

I'd just like to see a complete departure from previous versions.
I want a gritty, dirty NY, I want some sad Hot Box girls.
I want fraying salvation army uniforms
I want something that I will notice, not something I've seen before.
Otherwise, what's the point.
Doesn't this production start to head in that direction. The show appears to have a more realistic feel as opposed to the classic "cartoon" versions.
The more I think about this, Orfeh really would be a great Adelaide. I can just totally see her in this role.
I think McCormack and Butz would be great.
Anoka Noni Rose is pursuing a TV/film career, isn't she? (already has done "Dreamgirls")
I think Sarah Uriarte Berry would be good as Sarah.
Christine Ebersole is way too old for Miss Adelaide, particularly for this production that is way sexier and edgier than others. There is stripping involved.
I hadn't thought of Anika Noni Rose as Adelaide, I think she reads too young. I'd prefer her for Sarah Brown but don't think she has the upper register for the role. Sarah Uriarte Berry is actually a great choice.
Sutton as Sarah
JAMES MARSDEN AS SKY!!!! all i could think about when I watched Hairspray movie.
I know that-I just said she played the role awhile back.
I said Orfeh would be my pick for this production.
Cyndi Lauper would be great as Adaeline. She may be a little old for the part but then again isn't Megan Mullaley too old for the Madeline Kahn part in Young Frankenstein? If she were still alive she could play either part as well in both musicals.

I think Rachel York would make a good Adelaide, but a great Sarah.
How about Amy Spanger as Adelaide?
bwaylvsong, i guess i agree the point about Rachel. I mean frankly she already played the "role" when she did Victor/Victoria. I just think she would be stunning in everything!
