I know Jane lynch has never Broadwayed before, but has she Regional Theatre'd before?

Speaking of, when is Kevin Spacey gonna Broadway again?

Per Wiki, Jane Lynch is 52. I think she looks at least 10 years younger.

Waaaaaaaaaaay too young for Berthe.

It's a tough call but I'm gonna go with Chicago on this one.
I'd think Annie too but then they'd have to recast again after the summer when Jane goes back to Glee. I have Annie tickets for June 30. Time will tell but I'm going with Mama.

I don't know about "legit" regional theatre, but she has extensive live on stage experience from working at Second City.

A few months in Annie would get press on the show again, give it a nice bump in sales, and give them time to find another name to cast for a run in the fall (anyone from Wanda Sykes to Rosie to Tyne Daley to Mary Testa).

I scanned her book...I remember some early legit stage work and that she got an MFA at Cornell which apparently used to be a big deal acting program but went out of business

She's only done stage in college, at the Groundlings (improv/sketch), and the live action Brady Bunch episodes in tiny off-broadway (off off?) venues.

Katie Fineran is leaving Annie? Has that been confirmed?

Anyone think Paul Vogt would be a good replacement for Jane as Hannigan?
