Bruce Willis as Oliver Warbucks in Annie#1

I remember hearing rumors of him joining the tour about a year ago. Did he turn it down or was it just a rumor?

I think he'd be good.

I don't think this one is pointless. It's a simple question.

Not just that. I've heard his voice, seen the way he acts, and he looks the part.

It's a simple question! Wasn't he considering it?

And Raymond Burr would have been a great FDR.

theaterdude87 - You chose him just because he's bald?

I was thinking of him as Elphaba.

Raymond Burr? You betcha. Up there in heaven, he and Burl Ives are headlining the first celestial tour of Wicked.

He does look the part. But not just because he's bald. Victor Garber looked the part and he shaved his head! But Bruce can also sing and act the part!

RAYMOND BURR!!!!!!!!!! (he died choking with laughter). Do YOU want to push Raymond Burr around in a wheelchair? Oh sure, it was fine when he was Ironsides, ("Maaaaaarrrkk!") but in the end, he outgirthed (and not in a good way) Marlon Brando.
