The original company of the Broadway musical CRY-BABY releases a cast recording in digital formats today, September 25. Physical copies will hit the shelves on October 9.

Now, If/Then is taking that formula on the road in the first national tour, but according to an article published in Denver Centerstage, the tour might not have happened without leading lady Idina Menzel.
