They include Beanie Feldstein , Heather Headley, Joshua Henry, Rob McClure, Nicolette Robinson, Phillipa Soo and Adrienne Warren. The evening will also include appearances from Jocelyn Bioh, Raúl Esparza, and Judith Light. Will Van Dyke serves as Musical Supervisor.
Miscast20 will feature a free raffle to win a table for 10 front and center at Miscast 21 and a toast with the performers onstage after the show.
