Dream "Take Me Out" Cast — Page 2

The current Take me Out cast is SOOOO good. I saw the whow with my mom when it was in seattle. WOW! Phenomenal acting, amazing script, and fabulous looking *men*! And the guy who plays darren...you know the shower scene is going to be good from the second you catch a glimpse of him in his baseball pants...I love that play (for more than just the nakey parts...I promise!)

Equity rules say you cant be asked to take your clothes off (at all) until after youve been seen for your singing or acting ability at the very least... and then I believe an equity rep has to be there and it has to be private... (ie, you cant ask a room of men to disrobe at an audition at once because you have to guarantee everyones professionalism)

It may not be a gimmick, but it surely wasn't needed for the shower scene. As I said before, it could've been staged different so below the waist wasn't seen. I AM NOT COMPLAINING MIND YOU.

baddadnpa, youre missing the point. the scenes wouldve been less effective without it. the tension that the nudity causes amongst men when sexuality is an issue is vital to the story line, and the audience has to understand what its like for the men to be showering together like that... they probably couldve been creative with sets and props being in the way but a half wall would not allow the audience in on the uneasiness of the situation and something like strategically placing the shower head wouldve come off as comical and distracting from the story.

I disagree. They made a decision to use shower scenes, if they wanted to go half way and not show you it in plain terms, the locker room wouldve been enough but then the point would not have been made.

Scott Bakula
Chris Meloni
Jere Shea
Michael Baresse
John Selya
Keith Roberts
Chris Sieber

Any of those would do nicely...

To make Robbie feel better, let's cast Taye Diggs as well. I bet he would look good all wet and naked.

You mean, Mr. Matt, that we can't come up with at least ONE hot Asian and ONE hot Latino (although there's two in the script) for our dream???

Come on, you rice queens, let's hear it for our hottie friends from the Far East!

How about Jonathan Pryce with his Miss Saigon makeup?? Just kidding!

---

How about Marc Anthony?

---

Marc Anthony is an excellent choice!

But here's the REAL question: Who's the pitcher and who's the catcher?

I saw the original Bway cast and I must say, in response to a previous post, that the Denis O'Hare was the ultimate Mason; now, I don't have another to compare him to, but I was completely blown away by O'Hare's performance; I was laughing and crying, putty in his hands.

As for the other fellas, I also agree that it's hard to surpass the hunkiness and beauty that is Daniel Sunjata. (I occasionally see him on "The Shield" [I think!] on FX, and I always say---"I've seen you naked!!") But I would really like to see Barret Foa play a role...'Cuz not only is he cutie, but he could fit the young rookie role well.

Matt Morrison would be nice--Gavin Creel--

It's hard. I can't think of people who haven't been mentioned!

Ah, well. Good thread, none-the-less, as it allows me to dream of hot men...without clothes on. (Not like I don't do plenty of that in my everyday life--Ha!)
