Posted: 7/6/04 at 1:57pmActually, Danielle Ferland was 16 when the original 'Into the Woods' opened and I beleive Molly Ephraim was even younger when the revivial opened.

I dont think those lyrics could be sung to an adult

Marissa Janet Winokour is hopelessly unsuited for the part of Little Red Riding Hood.
Sutton Foster seems wasted as a Stepsister. But since this is your dream cast, I'll let that go.
Why on Earth make Harvey Fierstein the Giant? I just don't get that at all.
And your Princes are kind of...meh. I can't see them handling the Wolf part of the role so well. Neither of them are my favorite actors in the world.
But I guess that your name should have made the fact that our tastes are different painfully obvious, WickedDude. Unless you're just "wicked" in the generic sense.

Posted: 7/6/04 at 10:38pmHarvey has played women before. I'm certain he can do it. And Sutton Foster would be a good stepsister I'm not making her wasted. And Red Riding Hood is suppose to be a bit chubby so Marissa is only person I can think of for the Part.

Posted: 7/6/04 at 11:28pmThe whole appeal of Harvey in drag is that he is so obviously not a woman. His voice is very deep and raspy. It works in Hairspray because it is a silly show. Into the Woods, while it has its funny parts, is much more serious. I dont think you can use a drag queen as the giant.

Posted: 7/7/04 at 5:17pmIf WickedDude posted his opinions in a public forum, he was inviting comment. Not necessarily nastiness, but definitely criticism. He has a right to his opinion- but so does everybody else.
