Musicals with Green leads

Posted: 10/27/08 at 7:52pm

Little Shop of Horrors
Wicked
Young Frankenstein
Shrek

Coincidence? I THINK NOT. I'm getting sick of these holier-than-though liberal theatre people trying to spread their environmentalist ba-lone-eey to me with subliminal messages. That's why I go to The Color Purple and The Lion King, which promote my favorite energy source.

Oh dear heavens, Lizzie, did you have to bring up Starmites? Worst experience of my life...

I think this is seriously racist. What about Oompa Loompas or members of Blue Man Group?

I once heard someone describe her (Ruthie Henshall) singing as sounding as though she's trying to swallow a whole meatball slightly larger than her windpipe. (The same person compared Michael Ball's singing to sounding as though he's sitting on a washing machine on spin cycle and Colm Wilkinson's to a man with a paralyzed lip trying to eat cottage cheese.) --- Schmerg_The_Impaler

The only authentically green lead performer on Broadway is Nicky in AVENUE Q!

Everyone else is a poseur slathered in green makeup.

Nicky IS green! :)

I suppose you COULD have Frog in A Year With Frog and Toad wear green make-up, but it isn't trasditionally done that way.

What's next - a musical about the Jolly Green Giant?

Me - after eating a bad pastrami sandwich, many years ago during the opening night of a less than stellar production of GYPSY.

I think I made it to the off-stage bathroom and made my quick change in time to make it back on stage. It was a whirlwind performance, literally. (*offstage flushing sound*)

For those of you hating on Starmites, I just got an email from the writer, Barry Keating:

A hearty homina-hey to you!

In a couple of months check out the website www.starmites.com --- it'll explain all about the three new versions of Starmites that Sam French puts out now!!!

For a copy of the "classic Broadway" cd email producer Mary Keil at mkeil@sbcglobal.net--I think she can mail you a copy (for whatever the going rate is!)

State tuned for further developments about The New Starmites.
