Posted: 10/27/04 at 6:29pmOkay, what's the role you'd think you would have the most fun with onstage for some reason. Not the part you would like to play because it has the most depth or strongest personality, but just cause it looks like FUN! (ex-OMG I WANNA PLAY ELPHAMABA BECAUSE SHE TOTALLY GETZ TO LYKE FLY!!!!)

Posted: 10/27/04 at 6:39pmThe Queen in Mattress, Mrs. Mayor in Music Man or Mmme. T in Les Mis. I'm a character actress and those parts are so outrageous and get the laughs.

David walked into the valley
With a stone clutched in his hand
He was only a boy
But he knew someone must take a stand
There will always be a valley
Always mountains one must scale
There will always be perilous waters
Which someone must sail

"All I ask of you is one thing: please don't be cynical. I hate cynicism -- it's my least favorite quality and it doesn't lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you're kind, amazing things will happen."

YAY! I love this post :)
I would LOVE to play Penny in Hairspray. She's so fun :) I love comedic supporting roles. That's probably my number one, though Galinda and Nessa in Wicked would both be amazingly fun for me.
but most of all i yearn to be astonishing...

Posted: 10/27/04 at 8:38pmLittle Sally, or any role in "Urinetown," seems like it would be great fun, as would Penny Pingleton.

If you're a masochist, I'm sure playing Peter Allen is very fun indeed. :)
Anyway, I think Rick Lyons' parts in Avenue Q are tons of fun to play- weird voices, outrageous behavior, it's all there.

Posted: 10/27/04 at 9:36pmPenny Pingleton ofcourse, because she is incredibly funny. Audrey 2(or 1) in Little Shop of Horrors, and Gavroche in Les Mis even though I'm a girl. I've actually seen Gavvy done by a very short girl in the student edition and really enjoyed....so maybe....

Posted: 10/27/04 at 10:42pmMaybe Peter Pan although they're not really letting guys play the part. There are others but I can't think right now.

I always wanted to play Josh in BIG and finally did last year. It is The Most Fun Part. Aside from the song "Fun", where you get to dance on the big piano keys, I got to jump on a trampoline, jump into a bunkbed, jump onto a desk at the end of "Coffee, Black" (OK, so I think jumping is fun!) Also get to wear a white tux with tails, do a scene with all kids of cool toys in your cool apartment...
I got to do TWO spit-takes! (C'mon -- what's more fun than a spit-take on stage?)
You basically get to run around like a 12-year-old and sing wonderful music!! FUN!!
