Auditions are being held next week for a new Janet in Drowsy Chaperone to take over for Sutton Foster!
Any guesses?
Sara Gettlefinger????? (Although she may come across too jaded.)

Please let it be Nancy Anderson...she deserves a chance like this, and no one does that 1920's thing better than her. My vote goes to Nancy!

Well, since Sutton Foster is in a deja vu situation of performing at 1920's period musical in the Marquis Theatre, it might be deja vu as well for Susan Egan, who replaced Sutton in Millie.

i think Eden Espinosa would have made a great Janet if she wasn't doing Wicked in LA

I don't think Eden dances well enough to play Janet.

true.... we haven't seen that side of her... vocally she would have been great

Yes, but it might have been a little scary seeing her try to spin while holding one leg to her ear...

Actually, vocally, Janet is not a very difficult role.

No..Sus is about 2 weeks away from giving birth. She won't be doing any 8-a-weeks for awhile.
