What are some Broadway characters that grate on your nerves but would love to play? I personally can't stand Ado Annie, but would die for a chance to play her. Another one that really grates my nerves is (and I know I'm gonna get alot of mouth for this) Mrs. Lovett. And then there's Abigail from "The Crucible", who really needs a good spanking.
Feel free to add on to the list.
You insult me, I ignore you. That's how the system works around here.

Ditto to what Katurian2 said.
I don't hate her, but find her kind of dull, yet I can't deny I' love to play her.

How to properly use its/it's:
Its is the possessive. It's is the contraction for it is...

I have always wanted to play "Annie". "The sun will come out tomorrow....". I might be a little too old, though. Maybe I should try for Mamma Rose? "Mammas got the stuff..."
