Hahaha! I got my tickets on Nov 5 when Jane was announced. I was sooo happy. Now, I'm just dead. Wow.
I wouldn't say either one are big names. Broadway names, yes, but certainly not a Hollywood name like some people were speculating. Either way, solid casting again and happy to hear Tony will be returning to the show.
The seat I want for a Sat Mat is available. I just wish I knew if I would be cutting it too close getting out of Chess? I know the site says 2:40 but I think I might just have to wait and see.

I’m seeing more excitement online (from people I know) for Cheyenne than anyone else who has gone into this show.
Wow! Great news about Cheyenne. I have tickets for Saturday, 11/22 at 5pm. It will be another 3 show day with "Queen of Versailles" at 2pm, "Oh, Mary" at 5pm, and "Chess" at 7:30pm. Very excited to see OM again for the 3rd time.

Cheyenne was in Mayim Bialik's TV show on Fox as her on again off again boyfriend. I liked the show, and he was very good, but they got thrown for a loop when Leslie Jordan died & didn't recover well.

It's also a 30 Rock reunion. so maybe Cheyenne is a bigger name than I thought. Keep that 30 Rock pipeline coming for this show!!
It's been too long since those thighs have been on the Broadway stage!
And it's nice to see them sticking to non-traditional casting as Mary's Husband, love these unexpected gents in the role.
Jackie Sanders went on today in House of McQueen. How does this work the next two weeks at Oh, Mary! with Sanders being the only cover for Mary Todd Lincoln & Mary's Chaperone and needing to be called in to both shows?

Is she rejoining Oh Mary? IBDB and Playbill say she left the show last January.
If she is doing double duty, it will be worked out in her contract that one show is in “first” position. (And the Broadway one is probably in first position.)

She's been back with Oh, Mary! as a vacation cover since Jinkx's run. FYI, IBDB is rarely accurate with its dates. Playbill is usually off with dates on vacation covers & swings, too.
probably the best odds to see this show with an inexpensive ticket would be these next two weeks with Hannah Solow. Available looks decent but still well sold. Jane's first few weeks are nearly soldout now.
Release the Hannah poster for sale, you cowards.
Kidding, obviously. They're advertising Hannah and she has a lovely Mary photo for her two week run.
Leaked news of Oh, Mary! West End announced. Mason Alexander Park will open the show with Cole coming in later on after their movie is finished.

There goes my wish of Mason as Frank in Rocky Horror.
*sigh*
Julian with the midshow swing on last night as Mary's Teacher!!
Julian was on as Mary’s Teacher when I saw it a couple days ago. He was FANTASTIC.

Yeah, he was on Wednesday evening. He'll also been on next Tuesday-Thursday. James has done just 1 1/2 performances so far. Curious to see if James or Julian is on tonight.

This may explain where Tony Macht's been.
