Where Are They Now? (Broadway Edition)

Who do you want to know about the most? Where are they now? What are they doing?

My two picks:


Michael Cavanaugh - Vocalist/Pianist of MOVIN' OUT

Linda Eder (what has she been up to these days???)

There was something in the news about Cavanaugh. He's doing some sort of Concert. I want to say in Boston. It was on here recently....

I want to know where all those actresses playing "Tracy" in Hairspray have ended up.

Also, where is David Ayers? I mean, he played a pretty high-profile role on Broadway. He was one of the first replacements, but he's no where to be found. I mean, sure, he sucked, but I'm surprised he hasn't been recycled.

I would like to know what ever happened to Jill O'Hara, who was in the original HAIR (off-Broadway), and had major roles on Broadway in George M and Promises, Promises.

Video clips from that concert, including O'Hara's moment are also on the BC/EFA website (google it I can't find it right now lol)

Kathy Brier one Tracey in Harispray is still on One Life to Live though it sounds like not for much longer. Hrmm who else...

According to Google, Michael Cavanaugh is the Associate Head Coach for the Boston College Men's Ice Hockey Team.

:-P Kidding of course.

"She needs to cut that out."

Have you heard her cd? Its just.. ok. There is one standout song that I like and the rest are just boring, and this is a perfect example of why she should stick to Broadway

Linda is touring and I LOVE the country CD. It is really exhilarating to hear her sing country/folk covers and some originals. I think it is a stunning album. I adore it. It was refreshing to hear her sing simply without belting.

Yupp, pretty much to sum up what everyone else said: Linda is touring; she got bad notices from a lot of people for her acting skills in Jekyll & HYDE (which she was not terrible?); To top it off, Linda was really pretty exclusive to composer Frank Wildhorn, and since they split she has been released from all of those projects -- only staying with one: Camille Claudel. Unfortunately, Camille has been produced two/three times (2003 & 2005), and pretty much looks like no plans for a Broadway run, especially with some of the songs...I can't imagine anyone else BUT Linda in that role. Too bad ! Also, it was Frank who really got her into musicals -- she always had thought after StarSearch she'd be a mini-pop star or something to that extent!

She has often said she would love to do some sort of concert-version (Is this what Broadway Backwards does?) of Man of La Mancha with her in the title role ! She is very dedicated to be a good mother to her (& Frank's) son, and if you attend one of her concerts, she's very personal with the audience and you will see that she is absolutely happy with getting to sing 3 shows a weekend occasionally as opposed to throwing away her current life to do 8-shows a week and risk missing things..! I personally applaud her for that...but would LOVE to see her back on B'way someday!

What happened to Wilson Jermaine Hedria(sp) the orignal Angel in Rent?

Where is Tony Award-Nominee Marla Schaffel (Jane Eyre, 2001)?! She did a concert with James Barbour over the holidays,...and I think she is doing something with the York Theatre soon...?

Where be my Kevin Cahoon at?

What ever happened to Amy Spanger. It seems that she had been doing theatre in NY for a number of years and then after The Wedding Singer she just fell off the face of the earth.
