I'd be game for a topic for the sole purpose of posting pictures of shirtless men. :) Not sure if the BWW mods would be fans of it.
So yeah... DAMN YANKEES. Very curious as to who they'll get for Mr. Applegate. I have my fantasies, but they're unrealistic.

Posted: 4/2/08 at 5:37pmI like Matt Cavenaugh and all, but those panties he's wearing are kind of unattractive.

I like Cheyenne or Matt Cavenaugh as Young Joe.
A film star Lola as Jay said
and I like the sound of Nathan Lane as Applegate.

I am guessing it's Britney Spears! She is making a comeback!

Posted: 4/2/08 at 7:02pmThe most recent Lola rumor I've heard is PERFECT casting.
#60re: Damn Yankees at Encores!

My choices:
Lola- Shannon Lewis or Rachel Rak
Young Joe- Patrick Wilson or Aaron Lazar
Applegate- Marc Kudisch (is he busy?), Norbert Leo Butz or Bill Irwin

Posted: 4/2/08 at 7:44pmCan we go back to what happened with Jenna and Nine, please.
Well I didn't want to get into it, but he's a Satanist.
Every full moon he sacrifices 4 puppies to the Dark Lord and smears their blood on his paino.
This should help you understand the score for Wicked a little bit more.

Posted: 4/2/08 at 7:53pmshe just couldn't swing it, like Sweet Charity, and was fired. and embarassed.

Posted: 4/2/08 at 8:00pmJenna was announced about a dozen times as Jane Krakowki's replacement with different dates. At first she was supposed to join the cast along with Rebecca Luker and John Stamos (I believe Luker joined with him, I do know Banderas and Krakowski left the same night). Then, it was announced that the producers wanted to give her more rehearsal time and she would join at a later date while Gettelfinger played the role for a few performances...Then, it was announced that she would not be joining the cast at all. It was the worst-kept secret on Broadway that Elfman was fired (apparently from people that saw her in the role, she was God-awful, not sure if it was this role or Charity though, now I'm confused), she's still rehearsing the role of Carla.

Posted: 4/2/08 at 8:05pmSo, who is a star that could really dance the role of Lola? Chita? The only one I can think of is Catherine Zeta Jones. Or maybe Brooke Sheilds?

Posted: 4/2/08 at 8:16pmIf they weren't going to starcast, I'd say Natascia Diaz.

I thought of Natascia Diaz as well.
I won't say my first thought because everyone will probably roll their eyes at me and say that I only think of one person for every role...but her name starts with a D

Jennifer LOPEZ as Lola.
How about an actual FUNNY person as Applegate?
John Lithgow would be great, but he's busy with ALL MY SONS.
Billy Crystal has been suggested. He loves da baseball!

Posted: 4/2/08 at 8:39pmRay, I can see your other favorite person whose name start with a J more. After re-watching the "Whose Got the Pain" number from the movie, the need for an atheletic dancer is heavily needed. Although she is not a star, Valarie Pettiford would be a great choice (though she is a little old).
