Sounds like a bum season. And I'm not sold as the adults playing kids in "Mockingbird."
But I'm excited to see King Kong. It's going to be a big show.

Oh good, Celia Keenan Bolger...playing a child....again....It drives me nuts. Most excited about Ferryman and Lifespan.

Is there a shortage of child actors currently? Wasn't Charlie and the Chocolate Factory also using adults instead of kids?

In a musical comedy I can understand it but in a dramatic straight play? Unless they’re doing some sort of “memory” play thing with it.

As far as I know, they are only using adults because all of the tested kids couldn't handle Sorkin's fast dialogue.

The rumor is Sorkin's version sets it as a memory play, which explains the adult actors.
