So with rehearsals starting tomorrow, hopefully we’ll get some more - if not all - confirmed casting news. Not if they haven’t finished casting we won’t 😜 |

Everything about this just seems like a mess behind the scenes. I really hope it pulls itself together because it's getting dangerously close to previews.

I hope Katherine McPhee remembers her Smash fans and tweets "I'm In Tech"

Should we be worried? I kinda planned to see it in August.

I don't think there's any reason for people to be worried over rumors of late casting, this is not even a really complicated show in terms of staging, choreography, etc, apart from a number or two. Oh, btw, Mrs Mcphee has arrived in London.

That they have not completed casting (or had not as of Friday morning with two minor and one major-ish role still to be cast) is concerning, and might make for a bumpy first few weeks, but I'm sure all the kinks will have been worked out by press night and is likely why they've scheduled such a long preview period.

They're doing some sort of Instagram live at half 5 tonight showing rehearsals, so maybe some more names announced?

First spots... Nicole Dennis is there, as is Stephen Leask (who I’m guessing is Cal).

Nicole Dennis is in this I think! How is that going to work with her taking part in The Voice? Unless her being in this cast reveals whether she makes the live shows or not... |

I imagine she knows what her 'fate' in the competition is by now as most of it is all pre-recorded. I could be wrong but this to me indicates she hasn't made the lives, which is a shame as she has a terrific voice! |

Really confusing as she was just talking with Lorraine and said how she was hoping to break into music with JHud by her side. Odd thing to say if she hasn't made the lives. |
