why no announcement on who will be starring in Hedwig tour?

 It seems like they're waiting for the long time to announce who will be starring in the tour, I don't understand why they don't announce, why would I want to buy tickets  here at the Pantages in Los Angeles if I don't know  who will be playing the title  character?

 

 I just don't want to have them do something like: Ally Sheedy 

There are still nearly 6 months to go before the tour launches, be patient. Who knows, maybe they're not looking to stunt cast the show either. If that's the case, they probably won't announce it until a couple of months or so before the start of the tour. Look at the most recent Cabaret tour, they didn't announce their cast until December and the tour started in late January, I think it's still too soon. 

Jordan Catalano said: "It was announced in March that it was going to be John Cullum."

I just burst out laughing at work.

 

Jordan -- in some weird way, that could actually work.  I'd buy a ticket.

Thanks for the snark everyone, I've now been schooled by BBW finest ??

I've heard it's the guy from Scissor Sisters

Bahahaha!!!!!

 

Other high-profile shows going on tour/sit-down productions this fall which haven't announced their cast - Fun Home, Hamilton.

And I think they should cast Eric Stonestreet.

Cracked up at "The Battle of Murin."

Those aren't one man shows, though. Hedwig doesn't sell itself.

I've heard talks, but I'm thinking they are going to go with different people - it's too difficult of a show.

saw that notice. Looks like they'll have a Hedwig u/s on the tour.

Not very particular, are they.

HEDWIG: Male. Late 20s – 50s
