With Sammy Ferber taking on the role of Mark for Year 2 of the 20th Anniversary, is there any more casting news? Who do you hope gets cast, or stays on?

When does Adam Pascal finish in the Something Rotten tour? Because then he and Anthony Rapp can reprise their roles again.

^can't tell if this was a joke, but the tour is non-eq

Not for nothing, and it's very out of the ordinary, but Equity performers can get waivers to do non-Equity tours. Harvey Fierstein played Tevye in the non-Eq Fiddler tour about 8 years ago.

The tour of Fiddler that Harvey went into (stepping in for an injured Topol) was under an Equity contract at that time.

He definitely performed with the tour after it went non-Eq, I was there.
And on that same subject, John Preece who was the Tevye standby on the Equity tour ("Big Fiddler"
eventually became Tevye on the non-Eq ("Little Fiddler) tour.
