This is exciting news!

Too bad the $40 cheap seats look pretty crappy. Updated On: 11/7/13 at 01:07 PM

Wow this sold fast. I managed to get two pretty good seats, and with a cast this star studded I'm not surprised tickets went so fast.
Really looking forward to this, I was hoping rumors of Wilson as Sky turned out to be true.

Wow, that is a brilliant cast! They should headline an actual production. Mullally will make for one of the best Adelaides.

Wilson's got a nice voice, but I find him bland. Would much rather see Hugh Jackman as Sky. Now there's charisma.

I'm very grateful to my theater buddy, who mentioned this to me back in September. It hadn't been on my radar at all, but thanks to her, I'm going!

WHAT a CAST! Amazing... Perhaps this may lead to yet a another full-fledge revival to erase the memory of the disaster that was the last G & D revival...

Has Mullally ever played this role? It's such a good fit for her.

I love everybody here except Patrick Wilson as Sky. And I love Patrick Wilson, but he's not a crooner. He's WAY too legit, vocally, and I've never heard him sing any other way. His acting will be fine, but this is a concert.

I would have preferred Michael Bublé ... or Harry Connick, Jr.

Sky is a crooner role.

Period.

Sierra will be terrific, and Lane and Mullally will steal the show.

Poor Faith- stuck in a flop and not being asked to reprise her Tony winning role.

I can't say I'm excited about this cast. Unfortunately, I bought a ticket just in case. (What is the best way to sell it?)
