Welcome aboard, comrade!
Maybe, if this show proves to be a hit, they could get Donald Glover to take over the role when Ephraim Sykes wants to take a break.

Will this be followed up with a musical detailing the exploits of Bill Cosby from the POV of a Doctor Huxtable ugly sweater?
This LA production, and the one on broadway, seems like a tasteless move.

Like that even matters.
If this ‘parody’ jeopardizes any revenue that can potentially be made by MJJ’s estate, they will litigate.
