Megan Mullally? I'd like to see that, actually. Wasn't she rumored to be in talks for the London production, but didn't because her mom was ill?

Judy Kuhn is an intriguing idea for Sally, but I don't think she'd be the right match to play a contemporary of Jan Maxwell (assuming Maxwell indeed transfers with the show.)

My first thought was that they'd go to Vicki Clark, but Megan Mullally would certainly be interesting too.


Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

Marilyn Sokol could match Bernie's insane performance...

Someone tiny, vulnerable, and girlish.

Victoria Clark is the most obvious choice, she was fabulous in the part and it'd be very interesting to see her take of Sally in this particular production and also having more rehearsal time than she did at Encores!
I love the idea of Megan Mullally in this too, and being LA it makes perfect sense that she'd do it.

If Jan passes as well, I'm guessing a Suzanne Somers / Joyce DeWitt reunion.

I can't believe people really think Mullally as Sally is a good idea. Can she play depressed and vulnerable? Sally isn't a cartoon.

Sally is an extremely hard role to cast and successfully play.

Susan Moniz should take her BRILLIANT portrayal of Sally from the Gary Griffin Chicago production to Los Angeles.

No question-Marin Mazzie. If you watch her rendition of "Losing My Mind" from the Sondheim Celebration you will be a believer. She brings everything to that song that needs to be there.
