If you were casting Take Me Out, specifically the 2nd act group shower scene, who would you cast? I know, I am in the gutter!

I would cast:

John Barrowman (natch!)
Marc Kudish
Adam Pascal
Hugh Jackman
Michael Cervasis (spelling?)
Patrick Cassidy

I'm seeing TAKE ME OUT this weekend here in San Diego. A dream cast would definitely include Charlie Hunnam.

I am not in the business, but after seeing the show, I had a question. Does the creative staff consider the actors' physical attributes before offering the roles? It just seemed to me that every actor in the show was considerably well built, if you get my drift. Was that a requirement for hiring them for the roles they got?

I know, stupid question!

I dunno... Joe Mantello has a history of casting gorgeous men who get naked in his plays and movies...

Ok, so where is the nakedness in Wicked, huh? I could have used some Taye nudity...

Jude Law would have to be in it!

I didn't say there's nudity in ALL his stuff. and wicked is a musical not a play so shush..

I know for THE FULL MONTY that getting naked for the audition was not a requirement and, in fact, the first time they got all the way naked was the final dress rehearsal, but I think that was the decision of Jack O'Brian and that it didn't matter anyway because he wanted just regular joes getting up and doing a trip tease. But for TAKE ME OUT, they're all athletes so I'd imagine there is some kind of physical requirents that need to be met, weather on paper or otherwise... and I have a feeling Joe Mantello gets a kick out of that part...

If you'd seen the show on Broadway, you'd know that getting naked and checking out the physical attributes wasn't a requirement. Daniel Sunjata and Shane McRae were gorgeous men but the others weren't anything special, physically speaking. This thread is kind of ridiculous, IMO. We're talking about a Tony award winning play which is beautifully written, and was wonderfully acted. The main attraction wasn't the fact that the actors were naked for part of the show.

HOWEVER:

When I saw it on Broadway with Frederick Weller, i had a particular question. His unkempt pubic region...was it a conscious choice, as his character was a rather slovenly type, or just him. Most of the other actors were trimmed to within an inch of their.........

Just thunkin out loud

erin,

No ones denying the merits of the show, we're just having a little fun. :)

Erin, I have to disagree. I know alot of guys, and women for that matter, who said the only reason they bought tickets initially was because they heard there were long scenes with full frontal. I don't think the producers would argue that that was one of many selling points of the show. Otherwise, it would have been very easy to have a tiled half wall so you'd still be in the showers, but only see the guys naked from the waist up. The full frontal shower scene could've been staged very different so no pubic regions were shown. That is a very big calling card for a show - getting lots of publicity from the press and lots of ticket sales from the general public who may want to see naked flesh but do not want to go to a strip joint to see it.
