Hunter Foster jumping plays
Talk about being in demand: Hunter Foster, nominated for a 2004 Tony Award for his portrayal of the mild-mannered clerk in “Little Shop of Horrors,” will leave that Broadway show June 6 and nine days later will join the cast of Mel Brooks’ “The Producers.”
Foster will replace Roger Bart in the role of Leo Bloom, with Brad Oscar continuing as Max Bialystock.
As for “Little Shop,” Foster’s standby, Jonathan Rayson, will take over June 8-23 as the character Seymour; then Joey Fatone of the pop group ‘N Sync will play the part.
