I want to see the Full Scale version. I would also like to see Patti Lupone in the role but none of it will ever come to pass.

I wish I could sing.

Patti doesn't even want to sing Lloyd Webber...what makes you think she'd ever even consider coming back? She only sings a few selections of EVITA, usually only Don't Cry For Me Argentina or when she's doing stuff with Mandy!

Well, Madonna is now 50. Right age...

Madonna? Shouldn't it be played by someone who can act?

If it comes back, play it completely for camp. Cast Charles Busch as Norma (like the way he played Berthe in the World AIDS Day "Pippin"), lots of parody type staging laced with all sorts of innuendo and laugh moments with tongue firmly planted in cheek, a very scaled down set to look like they have the budget of a day care in Florida, like a campy burlesque of the original show.

gvendo2005, I COMPLETELY agree.

When I see the phrase "the ____ estate", I imagine a vast mansion in the country full of monocled men and high-collared women receiving letters about productions across the country and doing spit-takes at whatever they contain. -Kad

I wish we could resurrect Charles Nelson Rielly to play Norma.
