Oh but if I were a guy..and..black...Coalhouse Walker. I mean his songs...GAH. Ragtime is the best show. Just ever.
"It's a great feeling of power to be naked in front of people. We're happy to watch actual incredible graphic violence and gore, but as soon as somebody's naked it seems like the public goes a bit bananas about the whole thing."
Cassie in ACL!! Or Mimi in RENT. However, I'm a guy so I guess thats never going to happen. I'll go with Bobbie in ACL.

Honestly, I don't care what the role is. I don't even think it's been written yet. But it would be me, and there would be two male parts. Oooh, like Passion.

First of all, asking which ONE role on Broadway you would like to play is like asking, "Gee, SOPHIE, which ONE of your kids would you like to save?..."
