And so it begins.
BTW, anyone go to a DMV lately? Try getting a service job in CA if you don't speak spanish. It's all immigrants or their offspring. (By that I mean non white european, yeah I know we are all immigrants, yada yada.) Although actually MY family is not immigrant, we are conquorers. We took this land at gunpoint and I'll be damed if anyone is going to take it from us.
The cast is multi-racial, and was intended to be that way from the beginning.
So there are jobs for different races, but getting one is going to be just as hard for any race in the cast, not just white folks.
It's the hottest musical on Broadway, so cast replacements are going to be scarce and the competition extremely fierce for whatever few openings come up. A show like this can make a career for anyone in the cast, so those who have the job now won't be giving it up easily or for any trifling reason. I would expect only something like a severe physical injury or something as large would be the only way a new casting call would be issued for a long time to come.

So if the limitation is "not just for white folks" then why is the advertisement excluding only white folks?

It was multi-cultural but they've apparently decided they wanted to cast an all black or all minority cast in future runs of the play. Now that they've been busted, they've said all races are welcome to audition, but that's like "open door, closed mind" policy. If any white people are cast they'll be few and probably in minor roles.

They are casting the traveling shows and of course they want those casts to resemble the original as much as possible.
There are hundreds of other productions that cast a majority of white actors/singers.
Not seeing the issue here.
