Not since David Merrick and Hello, Dolly! has there been a string of replacement stars this inspired.

This might need to be our 3rd time seeing Oh, Mary! Cole Escola was so good, I can’t imagine anyone topping their performance. But…JANE KRAKOWSKI!!! That closing Cabaret number is going to hit a little different. 🎼👍🔥

I wonder if the other roles will change hands too.

Yes Inspired choices! Jane Krakowski is a great stage actress. She can eat this.

I haven't even seen this show (yet) but I feel like if I could I would see every iteration of it.

I’m seeing Jinkx in two weeks and it will be my third time seeing the show and I am very tempted to go a fourth time for Jane

If we’re working through Grand Hotel cast members, imagine Michael Jeter’s Mary.

Now they give us non-Equity Mrs. Doubtfire. Sometimes I look at the offerings and think they should have gone ahead and made it a dining hall.

Mame was never as successful replacing as Dolly was, but it’s a much harder role to cast.

That’s the version where Mary’s autobiography has a blank page chronicling her marriage to Abraham Lincoln.

By the time Oh, Mary! closes they’re going to have Meryl Streep and Glenn Close sharing the role.
