my favorite part for a guy would either be Link Larkin in Hairspray, Berger in Hair, or Princeton/Rod in Avenue Q.

for a girl what could be better than either lead in Wicked?

1) MANFRED in Sunset Blvd

2) KING OF SWAMP CASTLE in Spamalot

3) THENARDIERS in Les Miserables

4) MR SOWERBERRY in Oliver!

5) MRS BRILL in Mary Poppins

6) CHILDCATCHER in Chitty

7) BARONESS BOMBURST in Chitty

However, my all time favourite character part is:

STORMTROOPER MEL in The Producers. All together now folks- "Don't be stupid, be a smarty; come and join the Nazi party". Priceless.
