Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

It's been a decade guys.

This thread is to discuss a Drowsy revival, this means cast, setting, directors, conductor, producers, everything.

The only requirements are that there has to be. Beth Level, Danny Berstein, and Bob Martin.

The rest is up to you.

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

I'd rather wait another few years to wait for Lesli Margherita to play the title role.

#3

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

You obviously didn't read the question.

I just said that Beth needs to be Drowsy, I love Lesli and all, he's hilarious, but no one could beat Beth.

I'd love her as Janet though!

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

It's too soon. And then how is enjoying a great regional life.

(then again, it was too soon for a COLOR PURPLE revival, yet they made that work)


"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

Why bother if you're going to use the same three leads?

#6

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

Definitely too soon. It's produced so much in colleges and community theatre too as was said.

Exactly!

#8

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

I'd like to see Sherie Rene Scott as the Chaperone.

#9

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

I could even get behind giving Leavel a shot at Mrs. Tottendale, but not the Chaperone. Been there, done that, won a Tony for it. Burstein is even an intriguing choice for Man in Chair, but again, no need to relive the past.

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

Carol Channing as Mrs. Tottendale. No acting required at this point!

Carol Channing on film as Tottendale PLEASE!


"I saw Pavarotti play Rodolfo on stage and with his girth I thought he was about to eat the whole table at the Cafe Momus." - Dollypop
#13

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

I'd love to see Jim Parsons play the man in the chair.

#14

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

Eh, Idk, last musical I saw Jim Parsons in was "Elf: Buddy's musical adventure"

Remember how bad that was?

If he can redeem himself, sure.

#15

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

What ever happened to the Drowsy Chaperone movie? There were reports that Geoffrey Rush had involved and Fred Schepisi was going to direct. Rush was going to play Man in Chair after playing the role on stage, and other Australian actors were rumored to be joining the cast.

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

I'd love to see a super starry revival with David Hyde Pierce as the Man In Chair, Megan Mulally as Janet and Sean Hayes as Robert.

#20

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

Megan Mullaly is about 10 years too old for Janet, not that she would have ever been right for it anyway. She'd make a great Chaperone though. I also love the Sherie Rene Scott idea.


I am a firm believer in serendipity- all the random pieces coming together in one wonderful moment, when suddenly you see what their purpose was all along.
#21

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

Megan would be fantastic as the chaperone I think. not as Janet though


"Contentment, it seems, simply happens. It appears accompanied by no bravos and no tears."
#23

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

Patti Murin as Janet. She's taking all of Laura Osnes' deserved roles anyway (I wanted to build a snowman with Osnes Drowsy Chaperone Revival? )


Caption: Every so often there was a rare moment of perfect balance when I soared above him.
#24

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

Aw, I'd love to see Laura take on Janet. Heléne Yorke as Kitty and Ciara Renée as Trix?


They/them. "Get up the nerve to be all you deserve to be."
#25

Drowsy Chaperone Revival?

Megan Mullally as the Chaperone? I'm there.
