That would never work, nor be considered !

How about a tour of Bombay Dreams?

He'd be a fine Sweetie.

I know some of you don't like Tarzan (And the 2007 BWW award for Understatement of the Year goes to...), but please! I'm still clutching my chest and shuddering. Would you really wish him on ANY show besides Grease, because they deserve what they're getting?

Though I bviously pray something of this nature would never happen. I would actaully go see the dreck that is Tarzan on his first night, because I honestly think that Theatre as an art form could die the night that this happens. And I would want to be there, by its bedside, comforting it as it expires.

I mean think about it. This would be the culmination of everything that most of us hate about broadway: A show that is commodity over substance, with a bad pop score, reusing some old songs, based on a movie, produced by Disney, with all the spectacle of rope swinging, and terrible stunt casting playing to huge audiences. I am pretty sure this would be the theatrical equivalent of the Lethal Injection.

I'm not wishing for this -- I'm just saying I can almost hear producers scrambling....and it's kinda sickening.

I'd kill myself.

Jon, I was going to say revive Bombay Dreams!

How long before a mounting of Disney's Jungle Book with Sanjaya playing Mowgli?

Posted: 4/12/07 at 11:12am

What couldn't he do? Fiyero, the Boy in Fantastiks, Tarzan, Joseph-- man this kids future is unlimited. He will be busy though with his recording career and Idol win for a long long time.

True West with Clay Aiken?

[Rathnait62]

Posted: 4/12/07 at 11:25am

Clay's already committed to play Martin Short in the FAME BECOMES ME tour.

He looks young enough to play young Tarzan let alone the leading role!

[Bettyboy72]

I think Sanjaya on Broadway is one of the 7 signs it is the end of the world.

[AlanAntonio]

Posted: 4/12/07 at 1:25pm

Mwahahahaha! I would move to Vegas if that happens.

I actually just spit milk all over myself. That **** is funny.

Though I could see him doing the Jungle Book oddly enough...A touring children's show of the Jungle Book, he'd sell like gangbusters and give lots of us to bitch about.

I bet he would sell tickets!!

[Carl Magnum]

Posted: 4/12/07 at 1:35pm

Calvin, you almost gave me a stroke, that wasn't very nice. And PLEASE, Sanjaya will be playing Mary Sunshine before he's in Tarzan.

Posted: 4/12/07 at 1:42pm

There is a great report ciculating on the web today about Sanjaya being the most popular contestant in Idol's history. He's had more news coverage and more web searches than anyone ever. Idol is even tailoring their shows to focus more on Sanjaya-- note last night's "Sit down, get up" act with Ryan Seacrest. They've also gone to avoiding showing him before he performs (Late in the show) to keep the "What will he do with his hair!" speculations flying.

He'd be better as Jane.

[D2]

Posted: 4/12/07 at 2:27pm

Josh Strickland will be playing Tarzan for as long as TARZAN runs. What else is he going to do?

Chicago is more likely, and Unfortunately I'm as serious as Simion needing a bra.
