...they cast Dexter Rowland...whom I've never heard of.
Apparently, it's being played by Jamie Isaac Conde.

Posted: 12/4/05 at 9:10pmI think that person added themself there as a joke. There is no character called Dexter on stage.
Dean: Can I tell you something?
Lorraine: That depends on what it is.
Dean: I think you're really really pretty.
Lorraine: (after a pause) Ok, you can tell me that.

Posted: 12/4/05 at 9:27pmYou'd think IMDB would do some FACT CHECKING.

Oh, didn't you guys read on Playbill? They are changing the ethnicity of Link Larkin in the movie and he is now called Dexter. I'm assuming this is the same Dexter.

Posted: 12/4/05 at 9:42pmIMDB asks you when you submit info who you are- agent, director, actor, whatever. not all that difficult to lie I suppose.

Posted: 12/4/05 at 11:01pmWell, at one point, they had James Earl Jones playing Collins in the Rent movie, so this stuff can happen.

Posted: 12/4/05 at 11:06pmNo...adding names to a cast list on IMDB is a very thorough process that requires several checks and confirmations.

Posted: 12/4/05 at 11:20pmHey, As long as they still have Travolta up for Edna I'll buy a ticket or two!!!

UGH. Not having Harvey or Bruce as Edna is beyond criminal.
I love Hairspray, Harvey or Bruce is the only way to go.
It makes me so angry!
I will go to the show instead. No Jerry Mitchell? No Harvey?
Not interested.

We can't always have the things we want.
I don't want Renee Zellwegger to play Sally in the CABARET remake...but rumor's are she is. Will I still see it? Yes. Why? Because it's my favorite show ever.

Posted: 12/5/05 at 10:35amNope. ANYONE can add info to imdb. Hell, Jake Gyllanhal, who stars in Jarhead, wasn't even listed on Jarheads credits! JK Rowling was listed as an actress in the credits for the second Harry Potter film, but she never made an appearance in the film.
