Unlike 89% of this board, I couldn't be more thrilled for Spiderman TOTD as I am an uber comic book geek and theatre queen. However, I was less than enthused of the announcement of the 2 other leads, as they have been known for months. I troll google everyday and it seems my efforts might have payed off!

I don't know who she is, but apparently she's married to Jimmy from reefer madness so hooray. Is there any other casting rumors flying around? I know snarky castings will be mixed in to so those will be...fun?

I saw Olivo, and got way too excited. Darn! Well I am sure this Olivo will do a great job.

This is the only video on youtube where she is singing.
Not the best to show musical talent, but...

Just to confirm any rumors out there, she happened to mention that she got cast on the Blazinry radio blog almost a month ago. Hope that puts any rumors to rest: http://tobtr.com/s/1151279

Not trying to be bitchy. Just trying to educate. It's Spider-Man, not Spiderman. (In other news, it's exciting to see this show finally moving again.)

This is my new favorite way to refer to Christian Campbell.

We could also call him the cutie from TRICK. No, the other one.

OK, her character might be named Swiss Miss or Arachne? Oh it just keeps getting better, doesn't it?

If this show doesn't inspire Ken Mandelbaum to finally write a follow-up to "Not Since Carrie" nothing will.

Everyone thought Lion King and Wicked would be a disaster. Even with the awful reviews, Wicked is still going strong.

Silly Cageg, this thread was started 2 days before those announcement. And I'm obsessively on the official website everyday and epic song has never left.

To me this show is nothing more than another "Tarzan" but with hopefully much cooler music. Not holding my breath but we shall see...

I wonder what role GIDEON GLICK will play--haven't seen him since the wonderful SPEECH & DEBATE a few years ago. A very talented guy.

Actually rougeduck they had replaced the music on the website with another instrumental song on the day of the cast announcement but it has since been changed back again.

I also wonder what Gideon Glick is playing, I wish they listed their characters on the website!
