Here is the film's cast list:

Meryl Streep -Donna
Pierce Brosnan - Sam Carmichael

Not sure about the leads but, they could use some new ensemble members. It's sad to see some of these kids walking through the show and really not wanting to be doing their job. I know I would do anything to have their job and appreciate every second of it.

"I know I would do anything to have their job and appreciate every second of it."

And I'm sure everyone of those kids that you accuse of walking through the show, said exactly the same thing, before they were hired.

As with most long running shows, the leads have 1 year contracts, ensemble open ended contracts with a 2 week "out".

The show opened in mid Oct., so lead replacements will happen in mid Oct. The current leads will stay through the summer and until, you got it, mid Oct.

I'm sure they will announce who's contracts are being renewed and who is leaving in a few months.

As for the ensemble - they come, they go. Nobody really knows why.
