Hmmm.... could be interesting... at least they havemn't tapped Ice-Block Benanti...

I am still happy about Kudisch though.

Tonys will be intersting next year....

Patrick Wilson for Caracticus! That is my vote
Dilly tapped for Chitty

It would be intersting to see Richard O'Brien as the Childcatcher on broadway... or Raul Esparza (but he did play the O'Brien role in RHS, so would that be odd?)
Joel Grey or Dick Latessa as Grandpa would be fun..

Richard O'Brien would be great. I agree with that. Not sure about the either as Grand Pa though. I will have to think about that. But at the moment I can't think of an alternative.

Anton Rogers was very good in London but maybe he doesn't want to come over and do it. Russ Abbott????

I vote to keep Dick Latessa on Broadway and have him be Grandpa

As do I Craig.. to be honest, he IS my first cvhoice for the role. Dick Latessa is a true treasure. I absolutly addored seeing him onstage in Hairspray. He has such a vitality about him.

Alan Cumming would be a brilliant Childcatcher.

I thought Alan Cumming was doing something shortly in London and after thinking about it maybe Dick Latessa would be a good choice. Updated On: 6/10/04 at 03:55 PM

Paul Reubens is another possibility for the Childcatcher.

Ooooooooo.. yes.. Alan wold be DIVINE! I can't believe I didn't think of him! Especially since I JUST watched X-Men 2 three times in 2 days... I was/am BORED as hell and Shawn Ashmore and Hugh Jackman are gorgeous!

Now Paul Reubins would be CREEPY.. especially considering HIS legal matters...... only thing scarier/funnier/worse would be casting Micheal Jackson as the Childcatcher!!!
