Tamara Tunie and Ayanna Bria Bakari have been replaced by LaTanya Richardson and Kara Young for the upcoming Broadway engagement, which otherwise is employing the rest of the Steppenwolf cast.

I don't know if I'd call it theft. It's possible that the original two are no longer available, and it's equally possible that NY producers wanted better known NY names.
