I find this very unique and cool. I'm just excited to see the show live after hearing the cast recording since it came out. I've never hear any of those songs.. but now I know them all.
I bet the Muellers totally planned it. We'll have four kids, two girls ... one will win a Tony for playing Carole King and the other will take it on the road!
Sorry if that's too snarky I couldn't resist.
In reality, I'm sure the producers knew Abby and thought perhaps she would possess some of the same vocal qualities, looks, and acting style that made Jessie so successful. So I'm sure that played a part in her auditioning for the role. But I doubt there was a master plan.

In all seriousness, if she didn't have the goods chances are high that she wouldn't be cast. All the best, Abby! Enjoy the road; it will love you back.

Exactly.

Wait this reminds me of Alison luff, because before Alison went out on tour with wicked she was only in the ensemble and now she's a leading actress. Now we have another best sibling pair. The bolgers and fosters have to move aside!

Good for her. The talent in that family is astounding. A few years ago, I saw Abby and Jessie lead a production if Guys and Dolls in Chicago. Talk about a knockout!
I don't think it's that weird. Jessie established what they wanted in the role and clearly, Abby has similar attributes.
@call_me_jorge, Alison Luff was not in the ensemble on the Wicked tour. She was an Elphaba.
Does anyone know if Becky Gulsvig is still attached as Cynthia Weill? She was also mentioned in the tweet that named Fankhauser as Barry Mann. She was in Disenchanted recently, which conveniently closed this past weekend.
This has been done before. Jenny O'Hara replaced her sister Jill O'Hara when Jill left her Tony-nominated role of "Fran Kubelik" in the 1968 Broadway production of PROMISES, PROMISES.
Put away your smugness for a minute. Just because it's been done before doesn't mean people can't find delight in it. There's always going to be a couple MLB no-hitters every season, but just because someone's not the first doesn't mean it's not special.
