Hi all--

Please keep in mind that this is for a grad school project! There is absolutely no truth in anything I say about future shows.

For my project, I'm pretending that a large, nonprofit NYC theatre company is going to do a revival of Love! Valour! Compassion! on Broadway. I'm not too familiar with the show and don't know much about the characters. But for my project I do need to come up with a few names for the cast. (The project is making an in-person pitch to a donor).

So, might I kindly ask that those of you familiar with the show provide your "dream cast" suggestions? Celebs names are welcome (she says with chagrin), but reliable stage actor names would be great too.

Thanks!

Why don't you choose a GOOD play? This show sucks. Was it chosen for you?

It does suck.

No, but I'm working with rather narrow parameters. The show needs to be:
-a show dealing with HIV/AIDS and/or gay issues that hasn't been seen a recent NYC revival
-preferably a show this theatre company has done before

Love! Valour! Compassion! was the only show I could think of that fit those requirements. But I'm open to other suggestions.

Sueleen and Phyllis, I just want to hug you until your guts pop out of your mouths. I used to scratch my head and ask, "Did people really leave Angels in America to do this piece of what Ethel Merman called Torch Song Trilogy?"
