Jessie Mueller to replace Kelli O'Hara in NICE WORK IF YOU CAN GET IT on April 2!

[dyland]

According to Broadway.com, so happy for her! She'll be wonderful!

[carolineorchange21]

Yay! Yay! Yay!

She is such a wonderful performer.

*FANGIRLING SO HARD*

[bjh2114]

Yay! I may have to revisit this.

[theatergeek3]

This is great news! I wonder who will replace her in Drood. Is Matthew Broderick also leaving? If so, who is replacing him?

[wickedfan11]

Glad to see Mueller getting hired so much. She's incredibly talented!

[neonlightsxo]

@theatergeek, Drood is closing soon. She won't need to be replaced.

[wdwfreak]

theatergeek3- Did you read the article on Broadway.com? All of your answers will be found there. But I will answer them. Matthew Broderick extended until June 15th.

[little_sally]

I found this show to be so contrived and boring but this makes me want to see it again.

[christhefish]

Good for her. And work is work, but I would love for her to get the chance to create a role in a new musical rather than be the high point of revivals or a replacement in a show that comes off even more dated then any of the revivals she has been in.

[Kelly2]

Lord knows I've already got my ticket! This is amazing casting.

[littlebro2]

I assume that if the show is still running when Matthew Borderick joins, then Will Chase could take over for him like he did for a week in August.

[showchoirguy]

And of course I'm not there....

[ACL2006]

and my wish to replace Broderick on June 17th is David Hyde Pierce. PLEASE!!!!

[willep]

^Oh my, I would go see that, ACL.

[showchoirguy]

Pierce is busy with Vania and Masha and Sonia and Spike.

[ACL2006]

damn. forgot. regardless, I don't see the show surviving without a name to replace Broderick. And Will Chase isn't a name, he didn't sell many tickets during Broderick's vacation.

[shrekster224]

WHAT! This is great news! Honestly, she's not gonna be a huge ticket draw, but great for people who follow the Broadway community and people who will be newly exposed to her! She's fantastic.

[muscle23ftl]

Ew, I won't be revisiting the show.

[lightguy06222]

i never saw it a first time....

now to see it with kelli or Jessie....

[heytravistravis]

After seeing her in On A Clear Day I made a vow to see her in whatever she is in.
Saw Into the Woods and Drood

Guess I'll be seeing Nice Work now, but I'm glad. She is wonderful.

[HenryTDobson]

This girl must be setting some kindof record, she has gone one show to the next! She's an incredible talent and deserves to.. but wow!

[Kelly2]

Pretty sure it won't be long before she's an above-the-title name with her own shows. This girl is a total star and I'm so happy to see her getting the work and attention she most definitely deserves.

[goldenboy]

She most have a fantastic agent. I don't get people's love affair with her.
Didn't like her in Clear Day. Thought she was good in Drood.

[ChairinMain]

I think we're all going to have to learn how to spell Mueller just like we had to learn how to spell Audra.

[egghumor]

Splendid news! Yes, this gifted girl's career is airborne!
