Posted: 10/22/21 at 8:17pmShe might be on the young side but I’d love to see Tee Boyich play Jenna since we’re on the subject of former “mean girls”

Ashley looks like she's currently filming a project?
I'm beginning to lean more toward Taylor because she's posting a lot of "throwback"-style Broadway posts. (Though I'm not sure if she is still filming Kenan)
Erika just put her Instagram on private? Hmmmm

Kat McPhee is another one who had the Wiggiest Wig during her run. I’m surprisingly underwhelmed by her vocal performance but I’m sure she’ll settle in nicely soon.

Posted: 10/24/21 at 12:38pmI think because this was a rehearsal that she didn’t go out because she was definitely stronger on Wednesday.

I think by the clues it is probably Taylor, it will be nice to see her in an adult role since I did miss her in Kinky Boots!

Posted: 10/24/21 at 3:05pmmaybe it’s mean girls the movie! Lindsay Lohan could be fun 😈

Oh, just the talk in this thread. She seems to be age appropriate, not in the middle of a project, doing throwback Broadway photos on IG, etc. Kenan does film in LA but there is no season 2 date, meaning she would probably be available for the 6 week run. I could be absolutely wrong of course, it was just fun speculating.

Ahh, understood! Wasn't sure because I know for Jennifer's announcement they did put out some clues on Instagram. I think Taylor would be great!

Posted: 10/24/21 at 5:58pmAlso considering Taylor as a potential Jenna especially if the "casting a potential mean girl as the next Jenna" is true! I also wish I had a chance to see the OBC run of Mean Girls so if Taylor is the new Jenna, this would be amazing news.

Kate Rockwell is also in that show. Unsure how big either of their parts are and if they'll need to do promotion.

They probably won't do any promotion. According to IMDB, Rockwell is in one episode and Henningsen is in two.

Wonderful moment for her when they did curtain call for the final show on Broadway at that time. It was time for Katharine McPhee to take her bow and she went and grabbed Ms. Torns with her to take her final bow. A very classy move by Katharine McPhee to do that for somebody that did so much for this show. I know she had played the lead at times but like you said it would be nice if she got the chance to be the star of the show."
I was at that (first) final show and that was such an amazing moment. Also when Stephanie as Dr P’s wife had her scene and everyone was cheering so much it completely stopped the show for about 2 mins, and Stephanie and Kat were just grabbing each other trying not to cry lol!
If Stephanie did get to close the show, I hope to god they’d at least finally give her her own playbill!

Posted: 10/25/21 at 4:47pmDoes anyone know how you can buy telecharge Waitress tickets from via the official site and bring up the live seating chart please?! I hate buying tickets unless I know the exact seat I’m getting first.

I actually didn't know Kate was in Harlem as well!
When do we expect the next Jenna to be announced?

Probably within the first few weeks of November. That’s my guess. Maybe the week before Thanksgiving since that’s when Nettles is leaving.

I noticed this happening for me while searching for tickets on my phone, but on my desktop it pulls up the seating chart and you can actually click on the seats you want.

Ah I see! I thought the next Jenna would have been announced a little sooner. Maybe mid/early November. Do we think she'll be the last Jenna of the show's run?
Waitress Casting#294
Posted: 10/25/21 at 11:55pmI would expect it sooner. Just based on a lot of factors, I hope it will be a POC Jenna.

If it does end up being Erika, it is almost guaranteed they'll bring in Kyle to play Pomatter along side her.

Out of all the OBC Mean Girls, Ashley Park makes the most sense as she not only a known Broadway and Tony nominated actress, but out of the 4 she is arguably the most known outside the Broadway community with Emily In Paris and Girls5eva.
Since this remount is such a limited event, and the fact the previous Jennas have been Sara Bareilles and Jennifer Nettles, it seems like they are looking for more of a "known" name.
Also, I am biased as she would KILL What Baking Can Do and leave me speechless.

I'm wondering *hoping* they will extend this run.

I wish they could, but Paradise Square starts previews at the Barrymore in February.

I do not see an extension happening at all. Paradise Square is coming in and they’ll need time in the theater. I spoke with someone from Telecharge who asked me what i thought, and I don’t see how it would work out. I’m thankful we even got this run at all.
