Posted: 2/7/10 at 10:17amI would cast the usual way, with auditions ... where people sing part of a song. And then I'd have them read a scene. And if a lot of people show up, I might type first.

Posted: 2/7/10 at 3:29pmSo is Glea Michelphaba going to be playing Maureen or not? Because I think that would cause BroadwaySecrets to spontaneously combust.
