Any guesses? I'm assuming these are based on headshots...

The one to the right of Jessie looks like Chita LOL. Honestly who knows.
Posted: 6/17/15 at 7:14am
Hmmm I know nothing about the characters, but the one to the right looks like Jen Colella. The one below Jessie looks like Alan Cumming and the one to the left looks like Debra Monk.

I saw the photo yesterday, and didn't even think of the fact they were showing us clues! Duh.
Excited to hear. (I would think Cumming too old for either of the male leads.)

Could the one on the bottom left be Matt Doyle?

Maybe; the ears match! http://www.playbillvault.com/Person/Detail/63916/Matt-Doyle

Matt Doyle is already doing Grey Gardens with Betty Buckley this summer around the same time as Waitress. Is one of them Gavin Creel?
Posted: 6/17/15 at 10:07am
It could be. And I would LOVE that to be true.
Posted: 6/17/15 at 10:07am
True. I keep forgetting that's a thing.

Contracts aren't that hard to break, and a Broadway-eyed world premiere engagement easily trumps a one-off regional summer production. Not that I'm saying Doyle is cast.

I don't think Gavin is leaving Mormon until January, but anything is possible.
Kind of surprised there aren't more clues in the comments! https://www.facebook.com/americanrepertorytheater/photos/a.10152965337753564.1073741927.9103878563/10153379825043564/?type=1

Based on the build-up, I'm hoping they will announce today.
Posted: 6/17/15 at 10:33am
Dakin Matthews, Drew Gehling, Keala Settle, Joe Tippett, and Jeanna de Waal have all just been announced!
Posted: 6/17/15 at 10:37am
All the build up for THAT? Who are they? Aside from Keala? I thought they were talking major players!
Posted: 6/17/15 at 10:57am
Well, that was a letdown.
Posted: 6/17/15 at 11:30am
If Waitress is coming this season, Keala most likely won't even be a part of it since she is doing Jekyll and Hyde in Australia.

A+ to American Rep for trying to make us care! Result: no names.
Posted: 6/17/15 at 12:27pm
The cast may change between now and Broadway, but I'm still excited for this.
Posted: 6/17/15 at 12:29pm
I'm super excited for Keala and Jeanna!!!
Posted: 6/17/15 at 2:57pm
Did Playbill get this wrong, or is Chase Brock replacing Mama Mia Michaels as choreographer?
Posted: 6/25/15 at 2:29am
Former Elphaba standby/understudy Stephanie Torns is covering Jessie Mueller in this show.
