If you could miscast your favorite performer into any role, what would it be?
I don't know if this is total miscasting but I'd love to see Norbert as Frank 'N' Furter in the Rocky Horror Show, corset, platforms and all.

Not so miscast, though - he thought about doing it! He should play Glinda.
*headscreen!*

Posted: 7/20/05 at 7:23pmThe way he croons out Elphaba's songs? No. Elphaba, all the way.

"I want Idina to play dead"
I am sure you thought that was funny.
I want to see Andre de Shields play The Wizard...though that's not really miscasting.

Sherie Rene Scott as Elphaba. Yeah, it's not really "miscast" per say, and I don't particularly want it to happen, but she would do an amazing DG, if you ask me.
Or maybe I'm just tired.

Posted: 7/20/05 at 8:37pmLea Salonga as Mimi would be good! I would love to see Idina take on something like Eliza... i reckon she'd bring something to the role!

I want to see Daphne and Idina switch roles. Have Idina as Mimi, and Daphne as Maureen. HAH! THAT would be VERY interesting!
I want to second what Thenadier said- ChiCji, I'm sure YOU found that funny.
