CARRIE!

Really, I want to see it. And I want to see it with Harvey and Idina in the cast. (As long as I'm wishing, why not? Harvey would make a brilliant Carrie.)

My other dream production isn't exactly a revival. I would so love to see a live production of "South Park Bigger Longer and Uncut". The score is brilliant, and the thing is just so damn funny. Maybe we'd have to do that one after Carrie, since I want Harvey and Idina in there too, with Harvey playing Satan and Idina singing "Blame Canada".

You are not one to talk about Message Board etiquette

You haven't even been here a month!

[actor]

Posted: 10/15/06 at 11:29pm

Yes, but I can still discuss proper etiquette. It is frustrating when people post a topic identical to a topic you've posted very recently.

I desperately want Sherie and Norbet to revive The Last Five Years, just because I didn't get to see it.

[MusicalMo]

Posted: 10/16/06 at 1:11am

DROOD (The Mystery of Edwin Drood)

SUPERMAN (It's a Bird, It's a Plane, It's...)

THE ROBBER BRIDEGROOM

BYE, BYE BIRDIE

No dream casts I want to list here...I never see a point in doing that. Who's hot and who's not always changes.

West Side Story.

Casting? Surprise me.

Merrily We Roll Along
I only wish Hunter Foster and Michael Arden were closer in age. I'd love to see Hunter's take on Charley and Michael's take on Frank. And Sutton as Mary! That would be so different and so interesting! HUNTER AND SUTTON TOGETHER!

Any Herman show, wait a few years on Dolly, but I want to see it w/o Channing. Esp. his four forgotten/need of revision book-wise.

I'd revive "Golden Boy" and have Taye and Idina starring in it.

[americanboy99]

bump.

Posted: 10/16/06 at 8:21pm

I supposed Idina would be a good Lorna, but the husband and wife thing seems gimicky.

Um, actor, I don't mean to be rude, but this thread is different then yours. This one is asking for a cast. And by the way, this board should not be used for policing other posters. And some of the suggestions you had on your post were incredibly silly, some of them have not even been gone a couple of months. God. I'm sorry.

I've had this thing about the idea of an Anything Goes revival, with Idina Menzel as Reno and Laura Benanti as Hope... yeah, that would be rather amazing :) Sherie Rene Scott would make a rather amazing Reno too.. but I've just always adored idina and jazz since hearing Wild Party! not sure about the rest of the casting though. But Anything Goes is just def in need of a revival!
