Actually, Danielle Ferland was 16 when the original 'Into the Woods' opened and I beleive Molly Ephraim was even younger when the revivial opened.

16 and younger is almost a teenager. Besides A grown actress can play Red Riding Hood.

"Hello Little Girl"
I dont think those lyrics could be sung to an adult

Marissa Janet Winokour is hopelessly unsuited for the part of Little Red Riding Hood.

Sutton Foster seems wasted as a Stepsister. But since this is your dream cast, I'll let that go.

Why on Earth make Harvey Fierstein the Giant? I just don't get that at all.

And your Princes are kind of...meh. I can't see them handling the Wolf part of the role so well. Neither of them are my favorite actors in the world.

But I guess that your name should have made the fact that our tastes are different painfully obvious, WickedDude. Unless you're just "wicked" in the generic sense.

And the giant is a woman. I know Harvey's played a woman, but he sure as hell doesn't sound like one.

Harvey has played women before. I'm certain he can do it. And Sutton Foster would be a good stepsister I'm not making her wasted. And Red Riding Hood is suppose to be a bit chubby so Marissa is only person I can think of for the Part.

Harvey should be the Witch or Jack's Mother

The whole appeal of Harvey in drag is that he is so obviously not a woman. His voice is very deep and raspy. It works in Hairspray because it is a silly show. Into the Woods, while it has its funny parts, is much more serious. I dont think you can use a drag queen as the giant.

If WickedDude posted his opinions in a public forum, he was inviting comment. Not necessarily nastiness, but definitely criticism. He has a right to his opinion- but so does everybody else.

just out of winder wicked dude... what is your obsession with Amy Bodnar? In all of your "casts" she seems to be given the female lead
