I don't think the cast has been announced yet.  Glad it's coming to the National, rather than the Kennedy Center.  I really wish it was coming to Arena or Signature due to the more intimate spaces (and cheaper ticket prices for students).  But regardless, can't wait to see it in the fall.

Called the box office and they said individual tickets will more than likely go on sale this summer, June or July.

There's no way they would hire Casey Nicholaw to direct if they didn't want big splashy dance show, and intimate theatres with small stages won't work with that type of show. Dear Evan Hansen worked because there are like 8 people. Imagine Something Rotten in the Kreeger.

The only thing I've read regarding casting is that The Plastics, Janis, Damian, Mrs. Heron/Ms. Norbury/Mrs. George (all played by one woman), and Mr. Duvall have been cast. The notice says they are still seeking Cady, Aaron, and Kevin in addition to some ensemble.

Am I hearing this correctly? The Plastics, Janis, Damian, Mrs. Heron, Ms. Norbery, and Mrs. George are being played by one person? Can that even be humanly possible?

^What I think he was trying to say is Cady's Mom/Regina's Mom/ and Ms. Norbury are going to be played by one person a la Hairspray with the Female Authority Figure.

I think Jacob meant that Mrs. Heron/Ms. Norbury/Mrs. George are played by one woman. The other characters were separated by commas, and these characters separated by slashes.

What day is the official opening night? Or were you referring to the first preview?

What's weird is that Tina Fey said on Jimmy Fallon that the casting is complete. Why don't they just announce it now?

 I assume Fey would be there for the entire run considering it's a tryout and she wrote the show.

Good seats are still available. I just scored two seats in the second row center orchestra for the final performance on December 3rd. I'm looking forward to the show.
