Kinky Boots Cast - how long?
#1Kinky Boots Cast - how long?
Posted: 6/11/13 at 10:20pmI am planning an NYC theatre trip for mid-November of this year. Does anyone know if the Stark and Billy are still expected to be in the roles at that time? My guess is they signed a year contract but I could be wrong. Any insight is much appreciated. Thanks.

While there is never a guarantee, you should be safe. It's highly unlikely either of them have anything other than a one year contract.

After a year here I hope Billy gets to open the show in London.
The producers had a huge hit there with LEGALLY BLONDE and might do it again with BOOTS.

And who is Stephen Tewksbury replacing? Or is he an additional cast member?

I'm guessing Eric Anderson as he was attached to Soul Doctor.
On a related note: I believe Caroline Bowman leaves sometime in July

Completely agree with someoneinatree2 in that the accents are, from a professional standpoint, unacceptably dreadful. It sounds like the actors and the creative team can't be bothered with having a show that is set in England actually sound like it's set in England. Ashford Sands or Porter would have to raise their game by a whole heck of a lot to even come close to being their accents being acceptable, in England let alone good.
I think it would be interesting to see how the show works with English actors.
