I love thinking about unlikely casting moves which might work out remarkably well, so i was interested to hear your ideas too!
give some feedback, but please don't be rude, these are meant to be for fun.

to start out, i would love Sutton Foster to take over as Ariel in Little Mermaid.
Listening to the beginning of "Gimme Gimme" I could hear her singing "Part of your World"

That’s funny that you mention that because last night I had my music on shuffle and Gimme Gimme came on right after Part of Your World (or maybe it was the reprise), and I thought that both voices sounded very similar. Maybe it was just those particular songs, but still… it made me wonder…
Sorry. Um… your question… Patti Lupone as Elphaba! No, I don’t know. I can’t think of any good ones.

i should also mention, i agree with Adam Pascal, he'd make an interesting Phantom.
except i'd put it in the Farfetched category, while he thinks its probable.
i could see him in vegas though, especially since Sir Andrew Lloyd Webber said he liked the phantom to have a rock edge like Gerard Butler.
