| "But after seeing Will Connolly once again steal every scene he’s in as he did in the Stephen Trask show at the Atlantic, I wish he would be cast in another huge hit like Once. He deserves it." I wish he had been re-cast in the central role in BE MORE CHILL, which he played originally at Two River Theater, for the recent Off-Broadway production that's transferring to Broadway later this season. |

| I read in Connolly’s bio that he did Be More Chill at Two Rivers. I think he would be very good in that part. | |

| It's been almost four years since the production at Two River, so it's possible they felt Connolly had aged out of the part. | |

| "It's been almost four years since the production at Two River, so it's possible they felt Connolly had aged out of the part." That is possible, but Connolly is currently doing a credible job of playing a teenager in CLUELESS -- at least as credibly as most of the other actors in the show, and most actors playing teenagers in DEAR EVAN HANSEN and THE PROM and other shows that have teenage characters. For that matter, I don't think Connolly looks significantly older than Will Roland, who is now playing that part in BE MORE CHILL. Anyway, I have no idea why Connolly isn't still in BMC, so who knows, it might have been his own choice. |

| Yeah, there could be any number of reasons why he's not doing it. I would say that playing a teenager well in one show doesn't necessarily mean you're right for every teenage role across the board. Either way, he's very talented, and I hope to see him on stage often in the future. | |

| "Either way, he's very talented, and I hope to see him on stage often in the future." On this point, we definitely agree. Connolly did an incredible job of supplying the voice of the robot in AFTER THE BLAST at Lincoln Center Theater, and he is perfect in CLUELESS. |
