JCM’s performance has a lot of adrenaline behind it. When you are in the zone and running around in a blackout, I suppose anything is possible.

Probably will be on all weekend. Look at how long JCM was out in Hedwig.

I've been watching the tickets and noticed a day or two before they announced her tickets started to creep up ~$20 a seatr. So I went ahead and pulled the trigger right before they announced her, glad I did in hindsight

Hannah’s on for MTL for the 5pm today. No word on the 8:30

Yeah. When I left, they weren’t 100% sure if JCM was back tonight. Simu is out the rest of the weekend because of the Oscars tomorrow.

Hannah & Julian were one incredibly hilarious combination though. Both of them are complete fools willing to go all out and have the show in their bones. Julian’s crash out in the bar even got some pretty solid applause. If you have the chance to ever see them together, I highly recommend. Probably one of the best Mary/Teacher pairing since Jane & Cheyenne

John Cameron Mitchell is back tonight.

Bianca Leigh, Phillip James Brannon, and Cheyenne Jackson are all returning on April 28th, joining Maya Rudolph as Mary. Bless up.

Guessing that after Maya's run, we'll have an all new cast.

How is Brannon as Mary’s husband?

Cheyenne is so great. I hope at some point Urie returns because nobody has made me laugh harder in that role than he did.

He hews closer to the Conrad model of repressed sexuality into bubbling anger, but was the first to add a bit of mincing to the role as opposed to playing it completely straight (no pun intended). I saw him opposite Betty, Tituss, and Hannah and he is a really great anchor for whoever he plays opposite (although in the case of Tituss, Phillip had to do a lot of heavy lifting in their scenes since Tituss was rather laconic)."

I'll push back gently on the idea that Conrad didn't play Lincoln as visibly gay, because he had a trick of choosing moments where he would drop Lincoln's butch posturing and reveal the much more femme man that lay underneath.

Somehow that makes me appreciate his performance even more. The code-switching involved in his work was hysterical and subtle...or as subtle as one can be in this particular show!
