Yuck. Absolutely no reason to see this. Glad I waited on the casting before buying a ticket .

I think Lucy Lawless will actually be pretty great.

The rest? Eh.

[DAME]

Posted: 6/20/13 at 9:08pm

Oh wait a minute. That is the guy from True Blood? Ok. Maybe if I get comped.

I'd see it if I were in the area. I didn't know Bill Compton sang.

He's a bloody good singer, I bet!

Get it???

I think that the "special announcement" about the casting of Roxie means they don't have a Roxie.

Good joke, Jordan Catalano! Well done, you.

Does Sam even dance?

[Jordan Catalano]

Didn't he sing in a flashback in an episode of True Blood? I seem to remember that.

I'm pretty disappointed with this casting. There were so many great opportunities for some fun stars in some of these roles, and I had to look up half of who this cast this cast is.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Oh, you're right, Cats! It was back when he was terrorizing the world with that wretched Lorena.

[Jordan Catalano]

Any production of CHICAGO is lucky to get even DANCING WITH THE STARS caliber "stars" at this point. I'd say they got some good names considering that.

Anyone think the surprise casting will be Brooke? What a non event.

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 6/20/13 at 9:20pm

I bet it'll be Linda Hunt.

[Phyllis Rogers Stone]

Posted: 6/20/13 at 9:21pm

It's me. Don't tell anyone until the official announcement, though.

So I guess no Kathy Griffin for Mama Morton? Wasn't that a rumor?

I really like Samantha Barks and I'm curious to see Stephen Moyer as a song & dance man. I might just do one of those really cheap bench beats for the fun of going.

[DAME]

Posted: 6/20/13 at 9:25pm

It sure was. What a shame.

I wish I was in LA to see Samantha...

[theaternut]

Posted: 6/20/13 at 9:26pm

I guess I will wait till the next bus and truck rolls into town.

[OperaBwayLover]

Posted: 6/20/13 at 9:27pm

I'd go see this cast for Samantha Barks alone. I'm not picky.

Lucy Lawless!? WHY ARE NOT MORE PEOPLE PSYCHED ABOUT THAT!?

[Jordan Catalano]

Posted: 6/20/13 at 9:53pm

The only way I could be more excited is if they cast Dr. Zizmor as Billy Flynn.
