Actresses to play Daisy/Violet in Sideshow

If they revived Sideshow soon, or in the next few years, who could possibly pass as twin sisters and belt through the score?

Thoughts? Ideas?

Is the Roundabout production just not happening at all anymore?

I had thought if Roundabout did put it on, knowing them we would get Mary Bond Davis and Lea Michele.

Kindof unrealistic, but I'd love it...

Rosie came out the stage door after Kristin's Carnegie Hall concert in 2004, said "I'm not her," and walked away. True story.

It's a shame Bea Arthur has passed because I'd love to hear her and Ms. Lansbury sing "I Will Never Leave You."

They did an abridged version of it at the Kennedy Center and Jen Colella and Lisa Brescia were just about perfect.

I don't know who would do it with her, but Sutton Foster would sound amazing in "Who Will Love Me As I Am?"

And by just about perfect you mean absolutely terrible. That is the WORST version I have ever listened to.

Heidi Blickenstaff or Megan Hilty as Daisy and Kate Baldwin as Violet.
