With Beauty and the Beast approaching its final bow, we are hoping to contact the cast, crew, and orchestra members involved with the Broadway production during its 13 year run to participate in the final Broadway Cares Easter Bonnet Benefit. Performances are April 23 at 4:30, and April 24 at 2:00 at the Shubert Theater. If you are interested in performing (briefly and with minimal rehearsal, if any) in this memorable, fun occassion please contact us at : beautybonnetskit@yahoo.com

Aww, fun! I remember "42nd Street" had an alumni skit for their final BC/EFA event (Gypsy of the Year). Best wishes!

Can't wait to see your skit. I just started working at the Majestic, so this is my first year collecting. I'm loving it. Good luck finding everyone.

Good Luck, looking forward to seeing this.
I still don't understand why they are closing a show that still makes money for an unknown quanity as shaky as THE LITTLE MERMAID.
Oh well.

Curtain - I applaud them for their artistic effort as opposed to making it about "business."

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Maybe they could do something like "We're (Still) In the Money"

Well over 400 in North America, including LA, Toronto, and two national tours.

dancinfan -- I'll bet it's a lot more than that (19. If you're using IBDB as your source I think the list is incomplete -- seems like they're a little light on cast members from the Palace years.

I don't trust ibdb for much of anything, actually, since my own info there is not correct!

No, 198 is based on a casting database that has been carefully kept up-to-date over the last six or seven years.

By the way, 198 does not include any Chips, of which there have been many over the years.

Why no Chips?

Sorry - that's just the list I saw. There must be a separate file for Chips somewhere.
