  - They generally wouldn’t, I don’t think. - znufrii Mar 7, 07:48
- From what I can tell, we get the national tour groups. The faces on Come From Away and the Mean Girls cast are the names on Wiki. - Will Hunting Mar 7, 07:43 3
  - Yeah, first national tours are generally equity shops, I think. -- (edited) - znufrii Mar 7, 07:47 1
