Posted: 1/25/05 at 10:26pmhaha ew. Thats so great though, now I don't have to jet to New York to see it. Do you happen to know who the cast will be? I hope Shoshana will still be in the cast.

the touring cast will be entirely different from the NY cast- they cant be in two places at once.

Posted: 1/25/05 at 10:41pmLOL. I hate when my family doesn't understand that. They don't get the fact that there are two different casts.

The Broadway/LA group at the Pantages are looking for Part time telemarketers to sell subsciptions to this season. $9/hr + commission. 323-468-9647
I'm not trying to promote them or anything - just thought it may be a fun way to maybe see a few shows free. Not sure if they do that but worth finding out.

Posted: 1/25/05 at 10:52pmDreamcatcher - Shoshana is in the current broadway cast (she replaced Idina), she can't be two places at once. But Stephanie J Block is an amazing actress and singer. She'll do a great job!

And you think of all of the things you've seen, and you wish that you could live in between ,and you're back again only different than before...

Posted: 1/25/05 at 11:20pmAh. I read somewhere that the NY cast would be the ones touring (and plus even though they are in NY now, they could go on tour in June) but obviously that source was wrong. Still cant wait to see it. ^^

Posted: 1/26/05 at 12:45pmI heard the original Broadway cast will open the show maybe next year (2006) in London, so that should be cool, even though i live in NY lol, it will be cool for those over there who really want to see it

Well I called to find out about the telemarketing and the lady there sounds really cool to work for. She needs females in particular and the campaign startes on the 31st. It's 5-9pm at the theater...
Sigh, if only TV production hrs would allow me to get there I'd definitely help out to make extra cash and see a few free shows. The shows for the season are:
Wicked
Annie
Joseph
Bye Bye Birdie
Dr. Doolittle
Very family oriented season! She also mentioned under her breathe that Cats would be there too...I totally understood as I'm not a fan either
