My dream roles are what I like to call the "Big Four"
The Phantom
Jekyll/Hyde
Von Krolock
The Beast
I am much more attracted to darker melodramatic roles, but I'm always cast as the comedic or light-hearted character. Go figure..... :)
The one female role I've been envious of is Lucy in J&H.

"This is what I trained to do, and this is what I love about theater. What I love about being an actress is being able to really look into myself and understand another human being. And out my own self, to shape and form and fashion a real human being--and to present that in such a way that people see something of themselves or their own understanding in that human being."

Any role in RENT, Elphie or Nessa in Wicked, Eponine or Cosette in Les Mis (Fantine too I guess), Kim or Ellen in Miss Saigon.
I'm currently Marty in Grease, and I love it. I think Rizzo or Sandy would be fun though (eventhough Marty is the best in my heart!)
