Lauren Kennedy is playing The Witch in a different production of
Into the Wood, at Baltimore Theatre Center in Maryland. Jesse Tyler Ferguson has already acknowledged that he won't be able to do this production due to his
Modern Family filming schedule--though he did say that he really wanted to play The Baker.
As someone else pointed out on a previous thread, due to the production running until mid/late August, pretty much any TV name you could think of for the production (Ferguson, Ramirez, Radnor, Plimpton etc) is likely out.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
-John Guare, Landscape of the Body
