Pink ranger November 20, 2015 Share November 20, 2015 During press for The Wiz, Amber apparently said she's coming to Broadway and the announcement is supposed to come soon. Maybe that musical she did a couple of years ago , cotton club parade is transferring to Broadway or she has a stint in the colour purple revival that recently began previews? Exciting for Amber though, what ever it is. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/8482-cast-in-other-roles/page/26/#findComment-1729615

spiritof76 December 4, 2015 Share December 4, 2015 I just had to come in here and say how proud I am of Amber!!!! She had her moment to shine and she really took it and ran! I'm actually proud of her like I know her or something ! LOL! After her song she got so much love on Twitter. Her part wasn't that big, but when she was on screen she really shined. Actually the whole production was awesome. After that whole Sound of Music and Peter Pan debacle I was very skeptical and nervous, but dang it if they didn't pull it off! If I sound like I'm gushing, I freely admit I am. As a woman of color any time I can see us represented in a positive light on TV I am happy. I remember having the cassette tape (yup I'm old) of the original Broadway recording and singing my little heart like i was Stephanie Mills (I was in fact NOT Stephanie Mills. LOL!) I'm so glad a whole new generation have now been introduced to this classic.

For his first major starring broadway role as lead He should be pleased with how the show is doing financially, it made over a million dollars over thanksgiving and over the slow winter months so far has been hovering between 700 -900k per week aside from halloween which should be healthy for a musical that size.

Some of the Glee artists with the right producers and packaging (IMO especially Amber and Alex) could churn out a commercially successful product in some musical genre, but yea, first you have to get it out there. I think it's also ( though not the only thing)a little of that Glee's decline proved to have a negative burden/ baggage cred for the performers as far as being perceived as horribly auto- tuned joke, well maybe not so much Amber, but still...
