The title is awful. It makes me think it's a Revenge of the Nerds musical.

The last production got a ton of good reviews. You only posted the negative one. It's s good show, guys, with really fun music. And it's not just about the 1980s. The plot goes all the way up to present day, even after Jobs' death.

As for the earlier casting question, I believe Equity requires auditions, even if they already cast the show. Hamilton had full auditions as well for Broadway - they did add one female ensemble member and two swings though.

Hamilton added one male and one female ensemble member, two swings, and found several more that are currently being brought in.

Cynics!
We're certainly the underdogs of the season, but give us a little time to get our roots into the ground and I think people are going to be pleasantly surprised. We're up for the challenge!

I always thought it was boots on the ground.

Is that more of a military expression? I like to think in terms of growing things.

Yeah, you also promised us China Doll was worth seeing. So.

Seth - I am with you - don't listen to the haters. Saw the 54 below concert and loved the show ever since. Wishing you the best.

Military expression and growing things are not mutually exclusive. You're naivete, on the other hand, transparent.

Well I doubt it's fully cast as we speak. I mean, unless they've had the money in place for a while or were doing readings of it recently.

So this begins previews in less than 6 weeks and no casting has been announced. Do they even want people to be interested in this show?

Perhaps there's been a Rebecca-style "snag" in the fundraising?

Which means they'd need to start rehearsals like now? I mean it's a new show that is being mounted on Broadway. They gotta work those kinks out.

their website is still garbage. no cast list announced, no advertising & no discount codes available either. Do they really expect people to shell out $100+ for this?? This had flop written all over it.
