    Although I'd love to see Dan Sullivan on Broadway, having Jeremy join the NY cast certainly is exciting news. Only saw him once in Vegas; he was terrific! (I bet he'll make an even bigger impression on me when I'm completely sober.)

    @ Audrey, so now we know what happened in Vegas, lol. I saw Jeremy Kushnier at Rockers on Broadway and really enjoyed his performance. I'd like to see him play Tommy.

    I saw Jeremy in JB in San Francisco (way back when) and later when he was in Next To Normal. He was fantastic. It's great to have him back in JB and on Broadway.

    I read somewhere that Kristofer McNeeley is also joining the Broadway cast.

    It was in a FB comment by Jason Martinez. :) I'm so happy to have two such great Vegas Tommys here!

    Yes, Kris McNeeley has joined the Broadway cast. Unfortunately he was out when I saw the show a few days ago. He was a valuable part of the Vegas cast as he filled in as Tommy many times and also in his regular role as on of the "new" Seasons and others. His presence is announced on an insert in the program - they didn't reprint the whole thing; my guess is they'll do that after JLY leaves and Jeremy K. arrives.

    And I second the motion that Jeremy K's return is good news indeed. His Tommy is outstanding. I only wish he would have some overlap with JLY -- that would be worth a special effort to see!

    Thanks! They have to have an insert if the person joined after the playbills were printed, and since the playbills are monthly, Kristofer will probably end up in the actual playbill with the new September ones.

    So is he back to playing Hank?

    I saw Kristofer as Hank this week and he's now included in the Playbills. He made his official Broadway debut in the show on Friday. August 3rd. He also performed at the Broadway Sessions benefit last Thursday.

    Congratulations Kristofer and welcome to Broadway!!!

    Jeremy is coming to the Stratford Festival for the 2013 season. He'll be appearing in "Tommy" (directed by Des McAnuff of course) and also will appear in Fiddler on the Roof. Can't wait to see him again.

    Darn! I never got to see him as Tommy. So, who'll be Tommy then? Andy Karl? It's like a revolving door over at the August Wilson.

    Something tells me this weekend was his last, but hoping I'm wrong.

    I believe Jeremy will be with the cast for about a week into February.
