What revival, Mr. Roxy? She clearly states it's been too soon and that no one has asked her. And the thread title clearly says she WANTS to play the role, not that she will or is expected to or is in talks for it.
I think it'd be interesting casting. Nothing about her jumps at me in terms of thinking she'd be particularly great at it, but she's got great instincts, give her a good director and she might turn in something surprising. Maybe somewhere like the Papermill?
Somethingwicked, you're full of brilliant casting ideas this week! Donna Murphy in MASTER CLASS! Jane Lynch as Ruth in WONDERFUL TOWN! Genius.

We need to take a rest on Gypsy revivals for awhile.

Not while you're a round.

It's been a long time since Mame was on Broadway. I don't see why they couldn't revive with with Jane as either Mame or Vera. It's about time. I think people would go see it. Her stint in Annie gave the show a boost.
