I'm a girl, but I've always wanted to BE Sir Percy Blakeney in "The Scarlet Pimpernel"-- not just play him, be him. I mean, I was him for Halloween last year. I also desperately want to be Edna Turnblad, despite the fact that I don't look or sound the part in any possible way. My dream is to be the first female Edna Turnblad.
Some other roles I'd love to play are:
Madame Thenardier in "Les Miserables"
Ursula the Sea Witch in "The Little Mermaid"
Carlotta in "Phantom of the Opera"
The title role in "Evita"
The Beggar Woman in "Sweeney Todd"
Marian in "The Woman In White"
Sadly, I'm about twenty to forty years too young for any of these roles...

Posted: 10/28/08 at 7:56pmOh, Gypsy4... looks like we'll have to duke it out over the role of Edna! (And you'll probably win because you're not a five-foot-two teenaged mezzo-soprano...)
