This from HX magazine online:
"Don?t miss Bebe Neuwirth and Nathan Lane as they star as Gomez and Morticia respectively in the new musical adaptation The Addams Family to hit the Broadway stage on April 8, 2010."
And there was me thinking that Nathan would play Gomez with Bebe as Morticia!

Neil Simon is open as of now. Even if Robin Williams some how completely and miraculously recovers to do his show, they would still be able to use Neil Simon.
After looking at this list: http://www.nederlandertheatres.com/ it might be at the Neil Simon. If POTO is not at a Nederlander, I don't think Love Never Dies will be.

"It will open at a Broadway Nederlander theatre to be announced on April 8."
It means that it is going to have Opening Night on April 8th at a Nederlander Theatre that is yet to be announced. But I agree, that is very confusingly written

Posted: 5/11/09 at 9:50pmI'm so excited for this, I love the cast. But I can't stand Nathan Lane as a performer, he annoys me.

Posted: 5/11/09 at 9:51pmCarolee Carmello!!! This is the best news of the day.

According to someone on ATC, Carmello has dropped out of THE FIRST WIVES CLUB in order to do THE ADDAMS FAMILY. She'll be the only cast member from the final workshop not continuing on with it to San Diego this summer.
Does anyone know who they're getting to replace her as Annie? Joanna Gleason would be inspired casting.
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

I have an answer to my own question- the person on ATC says that Barbara Walsh is replacing Carmello as Annie in THE FIRST WIVES CLUB.
Even more perfect casting!

Posted: 5/11/09 at 10:31pmThis cast is AWESOME!! Hopefully Carolee gets a show that lasts.

Somethingwicked, thanks for clarifying that. I'm surprised Carmello made that move, perhaps she wasn't pleased with the material? Who knows?
Either way, this is a great cast.

Carmello is smart. She knows that THE ADDAMS FAMILY will be a huge hit (i truly think it will be) whereas THE FIRST WIVES CLUB may have some trouble finding an audience.
Even if the material to THE ADDAMS FAMILY is mediocre (but I hope it is excellent), the show will be a hit.

I knew Wesley Taylor had a huge career ahead of him the very first time I saw him in ROA. This young guy is loaded with talent.
And I love Nathan Lane-I think he's perfect for Gomez.

Posted: 5/11/09 at 11:13pmI am loving this cast. Nice to see Krysta out of the ensemble.
A little swash, a bit of buckle - you'll love it more than bread.
#44re: The Addams Family Cast!
Posted: 5/12/09 at 12:00amI'm excited to see Krysta in an actual ROLE! That girl is so talented!

Posted: 5/12/09 at 2:36amThis could also go into the Brooks Atkinson after Rock of Ages closes. I feel like it would be a good size and setting for a show like The Addams Family.

Posted: 5/12/09 at 6:32amGlad to see Jackie Hoffman back in action. Perfect role for her! Can't wait to see this!

Posted: 5/12/09 at 7:30amThough I'm not a fan of Nathan Lane, I may need to get past that and see this show.
