IF Peters & Stritch leave at the end of their contracts who would have the chops (and star power) to put butts in those seats?

I'll start- Debbie Reynolds as Madame and Carrie Fisher as Desiree.

Audra McDonald and Leslie Uggams!

[Almira]

Diahann Carroll as Madame Armfeldt

Vanessa Williams as Desiree

[Roscoe]

Posted: 9/7/10 at 4:36pm

Any way we can replace Trevor Nunn with Bartlett Sher?

Posted: 9/7/10 at 4:46pm

Diahann Carroll and Audra McDonald would be dynamite actually.

How about Nicole Kidman and Julie Andrews?

Now, Roscoe. Nunn's job was (and I'm being generous here) fine. But we all <3 Bart.

Or Brooke Shields as Desiree and Mary Tyler Moore as madame?

[Michael Bennett]

I still like my Julie Christie / Michelle Pfeiffer idea

[Dollypop]

Posted: 9/7/10 at 4:57pm

I want an all-male production.

Lilo & Stitch

Love the Carrie Fisher idea, but she already said she'd never sing again after The Star Wars Holiday Special...but I guess anything's possible. How bout Dame Judi Dench as Madame Armfeldt?

Carrie Fisher sang "Happy Days are Here Again" during her solo show "Wishful Drinking."

I would kill to see Audra as Desiree! Phylicia Rashad as Armfeldt?

Yes, she would look absolutely ravishing in Desiree's sexy costumes....

[binau]

But isn't she glamorous?

[BellatrixxLestrangee]

Posted: 9/7/10 at 6:08pm

I LOVE the Julie Andrews idea.

[jagfkb]

Posted: 9/7/10 at 6:15pm

Patti LuPone- Desiree
Dame Judi Dench- Madame Armfeldt

And lets give the rest of the cast a little star-love:

Paulo Szot- Fredrik
Lauren Molina- Anne
Bobby Steggert- Henrik
Donna Murphy- Countess
Cheyenne Jackson- Count
Karen Olivo- Petra

[Reginald Tresilian]

Posted: 9/7/10 at 6:19pm

Emma Thompson as Desiree, with Dame Judi as Mme. A.

[bwayfan7000]

Posted: 9/7/10 at 6:20pm

My dream pairs would be:

Cate Blanchett & Judi Dench

Kate Winslet & Meryl Streep (who I know is too young, but would be brilliant...I'd also like to see her as Desiree)

Emma Thompson & Julie Andrews

Emma Thompson & Judi Dench (or Julie Andrews) would be amazing.

[JOak]

Posted: 9/7/10 at 6:28pm

Casting Michelle Pfeiffer and Julie Christie would be beyond perfection.

[ILOHTFAHA (Aida Man)]

Desiree- Mariska Hargitay
Madame Armfeldt-Debbie Reynolds
Fredrick-Brent Barret
Anne-Chelsea Morgan Stock
Henrik-Stanley Bahorek

Charlotte-Elena Shaddow

Carrie Fisher sang "Happy Days are Here Again" during her solo show "Wishful Drinking."

And "My Guy" on Laverne & Shirley: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOKkQWcseoA

I think Chita could be quite good in this.

Posted: 9/7/10 at 7:30pm

Is ANYONE feeling Christine Ebersole as Desiree?

[Almira]

Posted: 9/7/10 at 7:30pm

She has done it...and not too successfully.
