this article

The TB post mentions this article that discusses how Bell, the producer of the show, is planning to recast the show with "stars," with the exception of Tony nominee Randy Graff. While A Class Act is my favorite show of the season, I find this move sad and unfortunate. I wish that everyone could see the show, and while I understand the importance of drawing audiences, this is a move I simply wish they wouldn't take. My recommendation is to try to get to the Ambassador before the changes take place--the current cast is almost perfect, and certainly not to be missed.

Brandy hip-hops to see wizard in Fox TV's 'O.Z.'
"In the new take on the "Oz" story, Dorothy will be a successful but lonely hip-hop musical producer in Los Angeles. After a massive earthquake, she and her sidekick Toto find themselves in a strange, wondrous land called the Big O.Z."
Obviously, this is just in the talking stages. But a cast that includes Little Richard (as the Wizard!), Busta Rhymes and Queen Latifah? Bring it on, baby.
