Oh sweet Jesus.

..there is a GOD after all....

A VERY VERY VERY good. One. God will be even better if the loincloth is ultra small and accidentally slips when I see the show.


Can I play Jane??? Or a vine???

Tarzan the Musical?! yuk

the musical? yuck.. maybe.

Matthew in a loincloth. Yummy. Definately.



Matt was originally cast to play Rocky in The revival of RHS, but he had to pass due to previous commitments and the role went to Sebastian LaCause. WHY ???? So close to him in a g-string yet so far.
Hopefully he will be in Broadway Bares at some point. Along with Adam Fleming, Joe Machota, and Gavin Creel with a side of John Hill.

can they alternate????????? PLEASE. Joe or Matt. Cast one of them.

[Amneris]

Posted: 6/12/03 at 9:43am

I think i'd rather see Joe in naked boys singing :)

Ain't that the truth. I'm sure he would have a larger part in that production.

Posted: 6/12/03 at 9:46am

okay so wait, would this reading only be one day? or is it an actual show (tarzan)?

[broadwayguy2]

Posted: 6/12/03 at 9:47am

It is in development now, so I'd assume reading or workshop.


You Tarzan. Me Tarzan boy-toy. :) Updated On: 6/12/03 at 09:47 AM

Can I get a AMEN for the Morrison-Machota Man of the Jungle??


Wait, screw the AMEN, just give the Morrison-Machota.

Posted: 6/12/03 at 5:43pm

Actually. this is just a reading/workshop.. so that doesn't mean definitively that Matt would be in the actual show. I certainly hope so though. He deserves a starring vehicle.

MM will soon have a website as well... stay tuned for details...

If they cast anyone other than Morrison or Machota in the role, I will lose all faith in producers. Oh, wait. I already have lost all faith in producers. ANYWAYS!

If they have any sense, they will put him in the Tarzan costume. That'll attract attention and cause spontanious orgasms from every woman and gay man within a ten block radius.

broadwayguy, if matt morrison does do tarzan, i will start praying now that you attend the night that something goes wrong and the costume rips during the swinging scene :o)

[broadwayguy2]

Posted: 6/13/03 at 7:58am

It probablt won't be accidental. I'll be the one sneaking out of his dressing room with a pair os scissors before the show!

[Amneris]

Posted: 6/13/03 at 8:00am

ohhhhhhh shiet! I can picture you going into the stage door dressed as a flying gorilla with a pair of crayola blue sizzers for ages 3-7 and cutting his costume up loololol...

[broadwayguy2]

Posted: 6/13/03 at 8:01am

Don't you know it. If Machota were to get the role, I'd be the extra person on stage that dresses like Tarzan's son 'boy' and taking it off myself!
