Let the stunt casting begin!
"You can't overrate Bernadette Peters. She is such a genius. There's a moment in "Too Many Mornings" and Bernadette doing 'I wore green the last time' - It's a voice that is just already given up - it is so sorrowful. Tragic. You can see from that moment the show is going to be headed into such dark territory and it hinges on this tiny throwaway moment of the voice." - Ben Brantley (2022)
"Bernadette's whole, stunning performance [as Rose in Gypsy] galvanized the actors capable of letting loose with her. Bernadette's Rose did take its rightful place, but too late, and unseen by too many who should have seen it" Arthur Laurents (2009)
"Sondheim's own favorite star performances? [Bernadette] Peters in ''Sunday in the Park,'' Lansbury in ''Sweeney Todd'' and ''obviously, Ethel was thrilling in 'Gypsy.'' Nytimes, 2000

On one hand, I’m shocked it’s taken this long but on the other if it weren’t for J.K. being what she is, it probably would have happened longt before this.

Maybe, but I’m interested in making a return visit for it.

They could bring the entire original cast from the film and I wouldn't support giving this woman any of my dollars.

Good for you because he's literally the only one willing to take the Crone's money.

I, personally, know trans and non-binary people that work either at that show or for the HP universe elsewhere. One of them recently said to me: “JK Rowling could not make another penny for the rest of her life and still be filthy rich for the rest of her life. If people want to go see a show or watch a series and support the artists working on it, I kind of understand.”
I thought this was an interesting perspective

This is such a win-win no brainer for the less famous members of the movie cast and the play, I'm surprised it took this long for this type of stunt casting.
Rowlings' insane hostility towards trans people is a legitimate reason not to do the play, though on the other hand as opposed to the rest of the Cursed Child cast, Felton was already going asked about Rowlings is every interview he does regardless of if he ever did the play.
