A friend of mine that I went to school with was offered Mark's Mom/Others/Maureen Understudy for the Non-Eq tour... but she turned it down... I know this doesn't help you one bit, but that's all I know.

Posted: 1/16/06 at 6:28pmOnly one previous castmember is returning, Aswad. Two others I know about are Mark who is a kid who's a senior at Brown and Maureen who is a junior at Tisch. The official list will be announced soon. They're heavily into rehearsals.

Mimi, Mark, Roger, Joanne, Maureen, Collins, Angel, Benny, Gordon, Marks Mom, Sol soloist/ Mrs. Jefferson, Mr J/Soloist, and a couple of swings..

Eee! Is my Marky going to be yet another Anthony lookalike? Or are they continuing to branch out?
(Feel free to tell me to STFU...but it's not every day that you get new RENT people. )

NOOOOOOO.... but they will come to Minnesota... oh yes they will...
and madison is only 9-ish hours away, so if they don't I'm totally willing to drive 18 hours to see it.
