Jacko as a Bway Character

Posted: 6/21/05 at 3:39pm

He may see himself as Peter Pan, but after hearing the Gloved One is possibly moving to Germany, I couldn't help but make the connection to the Emcee in Cabaret. Could you imagine him singing "Willkommen, bienvenue, welcome..." substituting the word "Neverland" for "Cabaret" and "boys" for "girls." He can certainly sing and dance, and as a bonus, wouldn't need any (more) makeup.

What is the recent Bway show that spoofs other shows?

He should play the Child Catcher in CHITTY

Please don't tell me he has bought Neuschwanstein. That place has already had one nutty owner.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

While I don't wish him on Germany (or anywhere else), can I help him pack? I'm trying to think of a Broadway character creepy enough for him. Off hand, I can't.

ROTFL at the Child Catcher.

When I saw the header, my first thought was of someone writing him into a show as himself, in a way similar to having Gary Coleman as a character in "Q."

Even in the make-believe world of theater, one must think hard to find someone comparably freakish. The gender bending is not so uncommon, the hermit-like retreat and mansion with a river ride of Phantom (+ plastic face!), the pedophilia of... (help me here). I believe Emcee comes closest, but most of you have a better universe of character knowledge than me.

That's it-- thank you noah!

One more musical character who may be comparably strange to the gloved one- Dr Frank N Furter perhaps?

Screw Patti: He would be a downright frightening Mrs. Lovett.

He'd be a fun Pirelli, too.

Willie Wonka, perhaps, or Pinocchio's Stromboli?
