McClure is just fabulous in these clips. Was skeptical and thought that I knew exactly how he'd play it. But he surprised me. The little affectation in his voice is just enough and delightful. And he's making him so damn likable, especially in that "Suddenly Seymour" clip.

Looking forward to a first report on Matt Doyle, who I believe started yesterday. Who's going?

Apparently they canceled tonight's performance mid-show, does anyone know what happened?

Matt Doyle's IG story says it's COVID-related and that they didn't have enough cast left to continue.

I have a ticket to the Saturday matinee as part of an NYC weekend.  Given Matt is already scheduled to be out for the weekend (meaning they have one less person than tonight) I have a feeling this weekend's shows are in danger.

Has his entire Instagram been deleted since last night or is it just me?

Not just you. I just checked and it looks like it has been deleted.

Tonight's performance is currently scheduled to go on.


A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Matt Doyle reposted about Lena leaving, but also said Andrew Call is departing soon. I wonder who the new Dentist will be?

I’m wondering if Bryce will come back since Ohio State Murders is done

Would be fun if Cheyenne Jackson came in for a bit as Orin. Also, I know she just had a baby, but I would LOVE to see what Kate Rockwell does with Audrey. She would be sublime.

Cheyenne would be really great and so would Gavin Creel (if he wasn't touring with ITW). I would also love to see some more diversity in the leads! It's been mentioned before but Larry Owens and Rebecca Naomi Jones would be some stellar casting fore Seymour and Audrey.

Rebecca Naomi Jones I could fully see going in for Audrey…l have to imagine it doesn’t hurt she’s worked with Michael Mayer before

I imagine they have his costumes in storage and he can jump back in relatively quickly as opposed to rehearsing someone new

Interesting! I may have to go back because I also see Bryce Pinkham is returning and I loved him in the show.

I wouldn't say she's out of left field, she is the traditional Audrey, a young ingenue with a slight edge/sadness.

Its more so interesting for the fact that the there are only 2 things that didn't make this a paint by numbers replica revival that countless schools, regional, and community theaters put on every year. One was it was built around Seymour, making him the shows focal point with all other characters being supporting, as opposed to most productions having Audrey being either the co-lead or star. The way this was done which leads to the second point was that Audrey was no longer a fresh faced naïve ingenue, she's an older middle aged woman beat down by life. In doing so it makes Seymour the sole spark of hope for change on Skid Row.

Audrey knows she's in an abusive relationship, she simply thinks she can't do better, which is much easier to portray when you are in your late 30s to early 40s as opposed to being 25.  It transformed Audrey from a Tracey Turnblad/Ellen Green caricature into a Sally Bowles, which is why many could overlook the fact that Blanchard did not have the traditional vocal chops for the role. I am not saying I don't think Maude Apatow will do a good job, it just seems like a complete 180 for what this revival was created to be.
