Posted: 10/1/14 at 6:17pmI wonder if they might bring Tom Hewitt back in the title role. He's so terrific and I'd love to see him in a hit. Of course whether or not this will be a hit is yet to be determined.

Posted: 10/1/14 at 6:25pmI doubt this last's long in The Broadway. Maybe this is just a filler until Miss Saigon comes in.
A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

Didn't Tom Hewitt play Viktor? Why not bring back Ivan Hernandez? He actually played Yurii in La Jolla. Although, I still have a feeling it's going to be James Barbour.
Also, the website is up.

How is Lara's role and do they include Lara's Theme in the musical?
It seems like better source material for an opera than a musical, but I said the same thing before seeing Natasha, Pierre and that was brilliant.
Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco.
Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!

What crazy European with money to burn is herding this to Broadway?

Posted: 10/1/14 at 7:00pmCATSNY, of course you're correct. I was mistaken. I'm not familiar with Hernandez but am a big fan of Hewitt.

Hernandez played one of the leads in Yank! and was quite charismatic and hunky. If you don't own the cast recording I would suggest checking it out.
Can Kelli pull double duty and be in The King and I and this at the same time. Reteam her with Stephen Pasquale and I'll gladly go once a week!
Marie: Don't be in such a hurry about that pretty little chippy in Frisco.
Tony: Eh, she's a no chip!

He already has worked with Des McAnuff at least twice before (Dracula, Jesus Christ Superstar), so he's a possibility, but if Anthony Warlow ends up doing it, I'd be very happy!

Posted: 10/1/14 at 7:19pmDidn't someone already post that Anthony was for sure not doing it? Or was that just speculation?

Posted: 10/1/14 at 7:44pmMaybe people will mistake it for Frozen (due to their logo) and they will get unintended business.

Hmm... the official website says "Tickets on Sale Monday, November 10, 2015." How will people buy tickets for the first 8 months of performances? Will they be free?
(Have they fixed the typo yet?)

Posted: 10/2/14 at 5:31amA return to Broadway for Anthony Warlow?
#18'DOCTOR ZHIVAGO' to Open on April 21st!
Posted: 10/2/14 at 6:58pmWarlow is reportedly not doing it, but a couple people on this board have said it will be James Barbour. Are people saying that because it's true or because he's good at European pop operas?
#19'DOCTOR ZHIVAGO' to Open on April 21st!
Posted: 10/2/14 at 7:00pmI said it because he's the person I would least like to see in anything so of course it will be him.

Posted: 10/2/14 at 7:00pmIs Barbour sween-worthy enough? Cause Zhivago HAS to be swoon-worthy...
#21'DOCTOR ZHIVAGO' to Open on April 21st!
Posted: 10/2/14 at 7:10pmIn that case I hear Jeremy Jordan is looking for work...
#22'DOCTOR ZHIVAGO' to Open on April 21st!
Posted: 10/2/14 at 7:16pmWell according to the Equity notice, the role has been cast. So...it's SOMEBODY.

If that's the criteria for being in this show, I assume it will also be starring Sierra Boggess?
