What is your favorite character in any show?
Have you played it?
Mine is Seymour from Little Shop, with a list that follows like this: Valjean, Princeton/Rod, Tateh, Mark, Jesus (Godspell).
I've played Seymour once (and am doing the show again next month) and I've played Tateh and Jesus.

Hedwig from Hedwig and the Angry Inch
Frank N Furter, Magenta, and Columbia from Rocky Horror
Lorrell from Dreamgirls
Edna Turnblad from Hairspray
Mimi in RENT
Val in A Chorus Line
Tommy and the Acid Queen from Tommy
I've never played any of those characters. Sadly.
I've kind of played Frank N Furter and Columbia in the sense that I'm in a Rocky Horror Picture Show shadowcast and have played both parts in the movie, but never my own interpretation.
And other parts (Mimi, Val, Lorrell, the Acid Queen, Magenta, Columbia) are all girl parts, and I'm a guy...sooo....yeah.
