Ryah Nixon Ensemble, Doralee U.S

CAST:
Violet: Dee Hoty
Doralee: DIANA DEGARMO
Judy: Mamie Parris
Mr. Hart: Joseph Mahowald
Roz: Kristine Zbornik

Dee Hoty is playing Violet.
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

I think it would be wise to but Galean G. as Judy

Gaelen has confirmed she won't be in the tour which to me is a shame as I loved her Judy.

BUMP! Although wikipedia is not the most reliable source, It says on Mary Testa's page she is playing Roz. Not sure if this is at all true but I can imagine it.

Shrek announced it's cast two months before the tour starts. Well it's almost 2 months until 9 to 5 kicks off so we should get one pretty soon.
Anyone know any more ensemble members?
