I read on a post that John Tartaglia is "coming back to Broadway in November in a comic role in a long running show." What could it be?
Carmen in The Producers? Spelling Bee?

Don't know if the Lumiere rumors are true, but in an interview with Playbill from January of last year:
' But don’t think Tartaglia’s hit a dead end with Avenue Q. There’s "talk" that he might open the Vegas production in the fall, and he might return someday to the show at the Golden — or in another Broadway musical: "I’ve always loved Beauty and the Beast and I’d love to be Lumiere." '
Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.

Since Johnny and the Sprites is on the Disney Channel, it would make sense that he'd be Lumiere! (Zanna would be a new musical, the post I read said it was a comic role in a long running show.
That's why I said Carmen in The Producers)

Posted: 8/9/06 at 10:09pmSorry for the confusion. I meant your first guess in the post directly before mine. Not your guess at the top of the thread. And my source is a good one. Trust me. Seems the boy loves doing shows with props attached to his hands.

Posted: 8/9/06 at 10:10pmOh how I would see beast just for him. I passed on it so many times...but he would make it just...perfect.
