Craig Revel Horwood has joined the new Annie UK tour as Miss Hannigan.
Thoughts?????
I personally love the idea of Miss Hannigan being played by a man in drag!

Posted: 9/25/14 at 11:39amCraig is fantastic! This is a must see for me, I hope they base it on the Broadway revival.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 11:39amI have always thought it would be interesting to see man in drag playing Miss Hannigan.

They did it before with Paul O'Grady's drag persona Lily Savage but he was already an established Drag act so it kind of took over the essence of the character itself in my opinion.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 12:09pmIt's a good thing there are already lots of other meaty roles for female actors over 40. You go, Craig!

Posted: 9/25/14 at 1:15pmHmm. I've never heard of this happening before, so color me at the very least 'intrigued'.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 1:17pm^ Agreed! Ridiculous and why? Of course any role could be played by any sex but, again, why?

Posted: 9/25/14 at 3:01pmWill it be good? Probably. Is it taking the job away from talented women? Yes.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 3:30pmSo sorry, I was replying to theeatah who said "It's a good thing there are already lots of other meaty roles for female actors over 40." That's what I was agreeing with.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 3:35pmAs long as he plays a convincing woman- This is awesome!!!

Posted: 9/25/14 at 3:44pmHe does evil women VERY well. Scarily well.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 3:50pmI would say anyone, man or woman, trying to take the place of Dorothy Loudon is in for an uphill battle.

^ I was waiting for it (someone to say it)- took longer then i expected. We know, we know...

Posted: 9/25/14 at 4:39pmAnd while I agree that Loudon is a hard act to follow, it doesn't mean the musical should never be produced again. I do, however, resent a man taking this good role away from a woman. There are plenty of other roles Horwood could play.

" I do, however, resent a man taking this good role away from a woman."
Wait and see how he does before you start saying he shouldn't be playing the part just because of sex.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 4:51pmI'm sure he'll be great but there are a lot more roles for men than for women so I consider it a bit selfish. Just MHO.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 5:07pm^ could be, but you all get the great ones.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 5:35pmNot sure what you mean by "you." I'm not an actor.
How Miss Hannigan SHOULD be done!#22
Posted: 9/25/14 at 5:39pmI think the "you" was referring to women, who get all the most juicy Musical Theatre roles. I don't know what led him to believe you were a woman, however.

Posted: 9/25/14 at 7:39pmI just assumed because... well, i just assumed. LOL

Posted: 9/25/14 at 8:40pmThere are men who champion women getting great roles, too.
