This is great news! I wonder who will replace her in Drood. Is Matthew Broderick also leaving? If so, who is replacing him?

@theatergeek, Drood is closing soon. She won't need to be replaced.

theatergeek3- Did you read the article on Broadway.com? All of your answers will be found there. But I will answer them. Matthew Broderick extended until June 15th.

I found this show to be so contrived and boring but this makes me want to see it again.

Good for her. And work is work, but I would love for her to get the chance to create a role in a new musical rather than be the high point of revivals or a replacement in a show that comes off even more dated then any of the revivals she has been in.

I assume that if the show is still running when Matthew Borderick joins, then Will Chase could take over for him like he did for a week in August.

damn. forgot. regardless, I don't see the show surviving without a name to replace Broderick. And Will Chase isn't a name, he didn't sell many tickets during Broderick's vacation.

WHAT! This is great news! Honestly, she's not gonna be a huge ticket draw, but great for people who follow the Broadway community and people who will be newly exposed to her! She's fantastic.

After seeing her in On A Clear Day I made a vow to see her in whatever she is in.
Saw Into the Woods and Drood

Guess I'll be seeing Nice Work now, but I'm glad. She is wonderful.

Pretty sure it won't be long before she's an above-the-title name with her own shows. This girl is a total star and I'm so happy to see her getting the work and attention she most definitely deserves.

She most have a fantastic agent. I don't get people's love affair with her.
Didn't like her in Clear Day. Thought she was good in Drood.

I think we're all going to have to learn how to spell Mueller just like we had to learn how to spell Audra.
