Is Jones the current Jenna pictured on their website? If so, very odd.

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.

I’m so angry. I love this show with all my heart, but Stephanie has been with the show since the beginning. She has never gotten what she deserves in terms of marketing and promotional material. To have someone they haven’t even acknowledged makes me question their decisions immensely.

With Torns announced extension, she really needs the PR to get her face on stuff. The website, the Playbill, promo material. At this point Torns should just close the show as Jenna this summer.

I just thought it meant Lucie was replacing Kat mcphee, and they just photoshopped both pictures together.

If Lucie was broadway’s next jenna, don’t see why she wouldn’t be in the show right now, and they wouldn't advertise her with Joey, if she was never going to be in it with joey. (Torns extended to his final date).

I’m putting my money on, that she’s the next west end jenna.

Unless Torns announced another extension today, she has not extended to his final date. His last performance is April 7th, I believe.

Are we completely sure this brunette Jenna in the new posters isn't Torns in a different wig? If you look at the poster next to recent images of Lucie Jones, there's very little likeness. The smile is almost just like Stephanie's though.

I'm not sure why they wouldn't just use the blonde wig Stephanie wears in the show, but I'm 90% sure it's her.

It doesn’t look like Stephanie. Almost identical eyebrows, smile and nose as Lucie. She also visited the Broadway show with Carol King last month when Sara and Gavin were in. It’s her.

I am big. It’s the REVIVALS that got small.

So interesting this show is still going. I saw it in its first year with Mueller, and while I liked it okay, it didn't seem like the kind of show that would have the shelf life that it has had. Though I enjoyed it, I didn't think it was so memorable as to last as long as it has.

It's 100% Lucie Jones. Lucie posted a photo on her Instagram with Sara just before her face appeared on the website.

Are we sure it's not Lucie Jones?

So what was the purpose of using the ads with Lucie Jones?

Maybe she's going into the London production. (Didn't Katharine McPhee say she was only doing 3 months?) Or maybe she's going into the Broadway production after Shoshana Bean. Or maybe she was planned as the next Jenna, but it fell through. Lots of possibilities.

Oh wow didn't see it being Shoshana Bean! I love her although I'm not sure i'd ever have her pegged as a Jenna. But I'm sure she'll be slaying those vocals! I don't think she's a big enough name to give the show a huge boost but she'll definitely bring in the theatre crowd which should help!

I saw Shoshana in concert last week in LA and she was in great shape, vocally. She reached notes with ease and sounded phenomenal. The audiences are getting a real treat.

I guess they just needed A Jenna for the posters with Joey and as she was probably doing her shoot for when / if she takes over from Kat in the West End they just used her! lol

Why only six weeks? That's odd. And whatever happened to Nicolette Robinson? She is was in the show for like two seconds.

Nicolette was in the show for 3 months (Sept. 4 - Dec. 9). She was originally only supposed to be in through October 28, but she extended three or four times.

I hope Shoshana extends to November so I can see her in this role. (Probably Not)

Is Drew coming back after Joey leaves ? Shoshanna I believe is like the 5th person who's connected with Chris Mann to be cast in the show (They recorded a duet last year and have done a few concerts together over the years ) . He did some work with Kat McPhee in 2010 and is good friends with Katie Lowes & Adam Shapiro and Eric Bergen. He visited the show last July when he was in NY for "work reasons " for two days and posted about being in NYC last May for a meeting with Telsey. Don't know if it would happen but id love to see him as Pottamer

You gotta give it up. That’s a huge stretch.
