I don't recall the name of the show, but Taye Diggs is in an off-broadway play right now. Jesse Martin is on Law & Order, so it's highly doubtful he'd be able to do it from a scheduling perspective. I don't know about the others.

Posted: 11/24/05 at 10:45amIt also should be pointed out that "See What I Wanna See" isn't on Broadway.

Posted: 11/24/05 at 10:50amPerhaps Traci Thoms will move onto Broadway? I hope, that woman is on fire!

Posted: 11/24/05 at 12:26pmI doubt they'd all come back to the actual show, maybe for a concert or a benefit show.

Posted: 11/24/05 at 12:26pmThe original cast already said they wouldn't do it on Broadway again, but they're all performing at the 10th anniversary reunion concert.

Posted: 11/24/05 at 12:28pmNot from the Rent movie, but I believe I remember reading that Daphne is coming back to Broadway in the new LaChuisa musical opening at Lincoln Center next season.

Posted: 11/24/05 at 12:44pmThoms should RETURN to BRoadway, this time in a musical. Loved Drowning Crow.
#12re: rent stars back to broadway?
Posted: 11/24/05 at 1:14pmThey are doing the 10 year concert as stated above and tickets are like $1,000 :o( But, Idina was asked this and she said somewhere that she'd only do it if her original co-stars came with her. It would be an amazing thing to do 10 years later but, highly doubtful.

Posted: 11/24/05 at 1:29pmDaphne and LaChiusa's show will be Off-Broadway.
#15re: rent stars back to broadway?
Posted: 11/24/05 at 1:45pmTracie's gig with Cold Case is long-term, as far as I'm aware. I heard she'd done 4 episodes (that have yet to air?) and they ended up liking her so much that they've made her a full-time role on the show.

Doubtful that Rosario would do Mimi on Broadway. As much as I enjoyed her in the movie, her voice would never survive 8 shows a week.
greenegirl87, the people who are organizing the 10th Anniversary Benefit are not really all that concerned that Rentheads can't afford it. It isn't aimed at them, it's a benefit to raise mucho $$. :)

Posted: 11/24/05 at 7:09pmWe're not gonna see Adam back yet, because Adam has said that he doesn't like the things being given to him as of right now, and will hold off until he finds something he loves.
