RE: Full Cast, Creative Team Set for Broadway's Guys and Dolls

I was over the moon hearing that Oliver Platt was cast. Id watch him do laundry! And now the news that Craig Bierko will play Sky? How lucky can an audience get? I saw Craigs Harold Hill in the Music Man and was utterly charmed. Cant wait for curtain time.
