Perhaps he will kill Chicago, like he murdered Jekyll & Hyde.

I hope he succeeds and they bring him over here.

C'mon, dont you all know that Hasselhoff is a serious stage presence whose talents have been ignored by the New York entertainment media because they just cant handle the fact that he comes out of television?

I totally agree with you! David Hasselhoff never made it big in the USA except Baywatch! His music career only made it big across seas! Hopefully he'll stay over there!

I agree with Broadwayguy2. THANK GOD he's not in America! His singing is painful! Sorry, but it's true.

Despite what everyone might think, this role suits David much more than J&H. This role requires someone with a great ego and who is only worried about himself and his image. It also requires less stage time and vocal abilities, which will save David from needing O2 tanks in the wings.

I have an idea! Lets bring David Hasselhoff to the Broadway version and bring back Melanie!

Why can't he headline the GYPSY tour?
He'd make a great Mama Rose!

I can just see David Hasselhoff doing Rose's Turn. Bernadette watch out!

Sad thing is; that as bad as he is; I would prefer seeing him doing Roses turn to Bernadette. At least with him I can laugh out loud.

Now, now, folks, as I was remindedd yesterday, let's not be cruel about what someone might do to a property or a role. For all we know, he might be brilliant.
No, really, he could.
Stop laughing over there -- it's rude.
Of course, I might take home a Tony award someday, but that's just as unlikely. :)
