Really interesting article here from Playbill. I definitely think there should be more opportunities for actors from both sides of the pond to perform in either London or on Broadway. There are so many great actors in London that deserve to perform on the Broadway stage and vice versa. I know this is a complicated process, but I really think that both British and American Equity should find some common ground when it comes to this topic. What do you all think?

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

Curious if Eva or Reeve Carney will transfer to the London production of Hadestown?


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 launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

I read on a different board that Jordan Luke Gage might be Orpheus in the London production. I could be wrong there, but it would be nice to have Eva and Reeve go back to London. The two of them are just wonderful together on and off stage!
