Wasn't at Broadway on Broadway, but from pictures it looks like Ephraim Sykes, Saycon S, Morgan James, and Ricky Tripp are also in the cast. Seems very interesting! Maybe they'll just make the official announcement soon since they have been seen as a group publicly.
Much of the cast has been involved with the show through various workshops and readings for the last two years. I know that's the case with Saycon Sengbloh and Morgan James, both of whom will play multiple characters. As was evident at Broadway on Broadway, one of Sengbloh's roles is Martha Reeves of Martha and the Vandellas, and I know one of James's roles is Lesley Gore. If I'm remembering the presentation I saw last year correctly, I think Sengbloh also plays Barry Gordy's sister Anna, who was married to Marvin Gaye, and I think James also plays Kiki Dee.
