Just announced that Keri Russel is joining Burn This with Adam Driver. Thoughts?

You're both wrong.  It's Keri Russell.

The Best Actor and Actress categories just got a bit more crowded!

Do we have thoughts on which theater this might be going to?

Seems like a good fit for the Hudson.

The Hudson seems the most likely. The show was originally going in their until things got put on hold.

A Chorus Line revival played its final Broadway performance on August 17, 2008. The tour played its final performance on August 21, 2011. A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour will be starting up in Somerville, NJ on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City, MO(May 29-Jun 3) and is now then touring throughout Japan August & September 2018. Japan schedule: Tokyo(Aug 15-21), Kanagawa(Aug 28-29), Shizuoka(Aug 30), Osaka(Aug 31 - Sept 2).

Keri Russell is our next generation Ann Reinking and we’re lucky for the second chance 

"J52--if you really don't understand how Kristin can be too old to play Fran while Bernadette is NOT too old to play Desiree, then I'm afraid you know nothing about the two shows, about theater, about actresses or about life."

I loved the production with Edward Norton many years ago although is seems like yesterday.

Keri Russell used to dance. I don’t know the play, so does she actually get to show off that skill?

Forgive me for not following your post.  Russell is indeed a blessing in anything. But what does she have to do with our next generation (as opposed to the here and now), Ann Reinking or second chances?

Does this have something to do with Anna in "Burn This" being a dancer?

I remember being blown away by Malkovitch in the original Broadway production (less so by Joan Allen who I never liked onstage, but love on film).  The off-Broadway production had unique, well-matched and wonderful leads in Katherine Keener and Edward Norton (Modern Family's Ty Burrell was Keener's boyfriend and Dallas Roberts quit his temp job to do the gay best pal and never looked back). Thinking back, I was so impressed with Norton's completely different take on Pale (Pail?).  A little less force-of-nature, a little more gentle and semi-screwed up.  I'm expecting Driver to be much more in the Malkovitch mold...to the point he's so perfect for the part it seems almost boring...
