Waitress is heading to London!! — Page 2

Waitress is heading Down Under 2019 and I'm sure a local name will be used as we have many who could do the job. And we have the next Hugh Jackman[musically] in Rohan Browne[check out the clips of him being Peter Allen in Boy from Oz currently playing in Melbourne[with Caroline O'Connor as Judy Garland].

No--I don't work for the company but saw Oz 3 times.

It would be an amazing coup to get Katharine McPhee to lead the West End production. She was outstanding in the role. Did people see the video of Jessie Nelson talking to the audience after Katharine’s final performance? She mentioned how she hopes it’s not the last time Katharine works with the show or something, and then said “maybe abroad” all knowingly. I for sure think they had to have at least asked her if she would consider, but this early in the process maybe they are just feeling out a lot of actresses. So maybe that comment is why people are mentioning Katharine, even though right now nothing has been agreed / decided. I also think it would be an amazing opportunity to choose a more unknown performer and launch a new star, but I can understand it if Sara and Jessie want a known quantity who they know can deliver.

I personally would LOVE Esther Hannaford! And would be A okay with Rohan in it, although that man deserves a star vehicle of his own!!! Such a talent and the absolute sweetest guy!

Today's rumors from London state it will either be Jessie Mueller or Katie Brayben.

With Katharine's tour playing it's final show on November 17th, her casting would make sense...

Are you sure? If that's the case, I'm bummed. I think she would have been a wonderful choice.

Well do you know that she declined? lol

If these “people” are teenage stans, I wouldn’t think much of it. She’s a bit young for the role.
