How about Jane Krakowski? Would she consider replacing her? Just a thought. If Stockard wasn't returning, Judith Light would probably be great in that role. (Really I'd see her in anything to be honest. I love her stage work.)

Ha, dreaming! Jane Krakowski is a genius idea. I don't see her having an issue replacing Mullally in such a high profile production, but I do wonder how she feels about being in a show with her baby being so young, and I also wonder if she is indeed up for being in a show whether she'd rather be in a new show like the rumored WHOREHOUSE revival.

The revival of "Whorehouse" won't be coming until next season at the earliest. This is a short term gig. I think she'd be terrific.

Good point. I think the fact it's a short gig would help getting her on board. Someone make this happen!

Noah Robbins (currently in PUNK ROCK) would be my choice to replace Grint. They'll probably want someone better known, though. But Noah would be terrific in the part.

The great Julie Halston, alas, otherwise engaged would be wonderful.

Catherine O'Hara?
Harriet Harris?
Jan Maxwell?
Jennifer Coolidge?

Judy Greer, Elizabeth Perkins, Julie White, and Jean Smart have all come to mind. Kristen Wiig would be a dream but she's too hot a property to replace someone in a supporting role if she were to make her Broadway debut at the moment & probably a bit too young.

alright so take this with a grain of salt, but I'm hearing Andrea Martin is coming in for Megan Mullally.

Andrea Martin isn't the name I've heard, but she would be great. (She'd probably be even better in the Stockard Channing role though). Of course, she and Short go way, way back--and were in-laws (her ex-husband is the brother of Short's late wife).

Julie White was the first person to come to mind for me when thinking about a replacement for Mullally.

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

I heard Katie Finneran. Can't remember who's replacing Grint. Not anyone I'm familiar with.

I think Katie would be an inspired choice.
