Harvey won't even fit into the slicky costumes. And he's capable of things that aren't in drag!

Rod would be a great Mama. Bring back the boa!

re: Chicago

Rod's a puppet right everyone? Mama is not supposed to be a puppet! How about Delta Burke as Mama?

re: Chicago

WickedDude I was what the Internet folk refer to as JK. Just Kidding.

re: Chicago

Sorry. I'm not into the whole slingo thing. Well how about Delta Burke as Mama.
#32

re: Chicago

I saw Jennifer Holliday as Mama and that was IT for me. No joke.
#33

re: Chicago

What would think of Kristin Chenoweth as Roxie and Susan Egan as Velma? Would they look great together?

How many times are you going to aks that?

re: Chicago

In May, I saw Roz Ryan as Mamma. There were two VERY young and VERY gay boys sitting in front me. During intermission, they said they didn't know who she was before then, but that they were gonan start watching Roz's TV series after seeing her in the show

re: Chicago

I love Roz; that's my girl right there. She's incredibly talented. (and she does a cabaret show too -- July 12 and 19 at the Skylight Room re: Chicago)

Gotta give the props to J-Ho as Mama too.... She rocks my socks off.

As for Kristen as Roxie... eh, not so much.

My dream cast?
Roxie: Donna Lynne Champlin
Velma: Michele Pawk
Mama: Vicki Frederick
Billy: Denzel Washington (I can dream, can't I?? lol)
Amos: Rob Bartlett (he's my absolute favorite Amos EVER!)

Combined favorite casts out of all the casts I've seen would be a different list though....

Roxie: Tracy Shayne or Bianca Marroquin
Velma: Roxane Carrasco
Mama: Michele Pawk or Roxane Carrasco
Billy: Eric Jordan Young, Shawn Emamjomeh or Michael Kubala
AmosL: Rob Bartlett

*sigh* I've seen this show tooooooooooo many times.

YAY Rox! That woman has a voice like you would not belive
#39

re: Chicago

I thought I posted this but I guess I didn't. I think Rod would be a better Mary Sunshime. It cracks me up just thinking about it. Afterr all, that role IS meant for drag.
My avatar is a reminder to myself. I need lots of reminders...

re: Chicago

Rod would make a good Mary Sunshine, but maybe Rod should just play all of the parts, and he could rename it 'I Am My Own Puppet'.
#41

re: Chicago

Susan would definitely be a great Velma.
#42

re: Chicago

Cheno would be such a cute Roxie. I heard that she dances rather well. Does she?

I love the idea of Egan as well.

Go for it, I say.
#43

re: Chicago

How about...

Roxie Hart-Kristin Chenoweth
Velma Kelly-Susan Egan
Billy-Fylnn-Michael Kubala
Matron "Mama" Mortan-Beth Fowler
Amos Hart-Rob Bartlett

re: Chicago

YAY Rox! That woman has a voice like you would not belive

Why yes, yes she does. God love that woman and her lungs.....

(and her flying splits when she plays Velma!!!)

BTW, WickedDude, who have you seen in Chicago?? You seem to be throwing a lot of random names out there, and I've actually become quite curious.

re: Chicago

I'd love to see Eric McCormack as Billy Flynn. Of couorse, everyone else in the cast would have to be equally short!

Duh! Hugh Jackman would a great Billy Flynn! Alongside Kristin Chenoweth as Roxie and Susan Egan as Velma the three of them will shine on stage!
