The Leading Player in Pippin. I would love to be kind of the evil one. I would also like to be Louis from Pippin and prance around the stage like an idiot

Julia in the Wedding Singer and when I'm suppose to start singing "Someday", I'd sing "Right On Time" instead and watch the crowd go crazy over the song.

I know it's not a big role, but for some reason I have always wanted to be Ellen in Miss Saigon. I would also want to be Jo in Little Women.

I honestly can't decide between Don Q in Man of La Mancha, Henry Higgins in My Fair Lady, and Arthur in Camelot...(not to mention Hook in Peter Pan)...I'm flummoxed.
"I don't really get the ending,all i can go with is when after several months,Judith saw Pat sang,and later she kissed him on the toilet,after that the story back to where Pat went down from the stage after he'd sung,and he went to the italian lady.I just don't get it,what Judith exatcly meant when he kissed Pat that she had seen,and did Pat end up together with The Italian Lady?Please help me,thank u very much!" Quote from someone on IMDB in reference to a movie he/she didn't understand. Such grammar!

As much as I ADORE musicals....I'd nearly sell my soul to play Nicholas Nickleby in The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickleby. I saw it live twice, and then bought the video set (sanctioned). I've seen it at least a dozen times, and I think it would be the ULTIMATE challenge!

I want to be the first male Norma Desmond. I'd also love a crack at playing Chita Rivera in The Dancer's Life. :) Maybe I could be her understudy. Hell, who am I kidding. Chita is still more fit that I ever was. She can dance circles around me. It's a nice fantasy though.

I would absolutely love to portray Sarah in Ragtime. However, I am lacking quite a bit of color. So, uh, I doubt that would work :)

I would then say Evelyn Nesbit or Mother from Ragtime. What can I say? I love that musical.

"Grease," the fourth revival of the season, is the worst show in the history of theater and represents an unparalleled assault on Western civilization and its values. - Michael Reidel
