Any updates/rumors about who's taking over roles for the extension?

I just HOPE AND PRAY Patina stays through the extension! That woman's performance as the witch sent chills down my spine. More people need to see her performance!
The idea is to work and to experiment. Some things will be creatively successful, some things will succeed at the box office, and some things will only - which is the biggest only - teach you things that see the future. And they're probably as valuable as any of your successes. -Harold Prince

There will be cast changes. I don’t think they’re as extensive as they were going to be but there will still be new people joining. Like everything with this production, things just happen and change so damn fast. I can’t remember a time where a production had everything happen like this.

Hoping we get a Stephane J Block an Brandon Uranowitz reunion with the Bakers Wife and Baker. Maybe have another big(dish) broadway name for Cinderella's Prince...is Brandon Victor Dixon available? I'd also love to see a huge name as the Witch to ensure a long run through the year at the very least.

Brandon Uranowitz is in the Leopoldstadt cast so unfortunately that's not likely to happen.

Let's get Heather Hedley back for a few weeks --- also on my "witch wish list": La Chanze, Donna Murphy, Lea Salonga, Audra McDonald, Kristin Chenoweth and (of course) Patti!

Gosh I’d love to see Murphy without having to project through all that foam nonsense she had to keep adding through act one in the SITP production. So fascinating to have her play both sides of Rapunzel’s mother figure with previous work in Tangled. One day she needs to do a Mother Knows Best/Stay With Me medley!

Can Carmen Cusack do anything in this? I need more of her.

Please let it be Carmen for a few weeks.

1,000 times YES to Carmen Cusack... just the mere thought of her "Last Midnight" gives me chills...

Phillipa Soo is doing Guys and Dolls at The Kennedy Center with performances starting early October, so I don't know how that timing will work out.

So, here's our first hint of a cast change:
James Monroe Iglehart, Phillipa Soo, Steven Pasquale & Jessie Mueller Will Lead GUYS AND DOLLS at the Kennedy Center (broadwayworld.com)

I wonder if they’ll just have someone fill in for her temporarily or if they’ll recast entirely.

Are these the "reunion" casting (from another show, not ITW) rumors I heard last month?
