Yes, please - Swenson should be brilliant and *very* excited about Lesli taking on Mrs. Lovett:

Will is so intense, he will be a perfect Mr. T. Gorgeous theater.

Great casting. Hope Will’s wife gets her wish to play Sweeney too before too long

Jason Alexander is not a great director, IMHO--this feels like a hard show for him to work on, but maybe he can just let them play it safe and fully traditional.
