Random, I think by now we might have set a record for debating the casting of a show that doesn't even exist - even for BWW. But it has been fun!

Yes and i'm sorry but i'm horrible i write huge posts so then i never see the other person has responded. it's kinda funny. on another subject plimpton and mullally, and if you wish benanti?

For &*()'s sake, no need to apologize!

So, who again?

OK, Mullaley, PLimpton and who? Oh, Benanti.

Hmmm.... I feel, in keeping with all the cross-racial, cross-gender, cross-species threads I should think outside of the box. Big time.
So, I'll just say:

Megan as Don Quixote, Martha as Sancho and Laura as Rocinante.

But seriously folks....

ok, time for dinner, I'll come up with something later...

* * *

Ok, Laura as Annie, Martha as Sarah and Megan as Ruth (or some other combination thereof) in The Norman Conquests

Joan Allen, Gabriel Byrne, and if you like, Bill Pullman

Joan allen as Ranevskaya
Bill Pullman as gayev
and
Byrne as simeonov-pishchik In the cherry tree. My only concern is allen possibly looking too attractive or not being so far gone as to seem like an old aristocrat but i think she could do it.

Heather Headley and Sierra Boggess?

[sondheim94]

Posted: 10/16/11 at 1:12pm

Heather Headley -- Sarah, RAGTIME
Sierra Boggess -- Sarah Brown, GUYS AND DOLLS

hehe two Sarahs!!

Alice Ripley and Rosalind Russell?

[random person 112]

umm w your supposed to cast the two in the same piece not diffrent pieces and frankly headley dosn't have the pipes for sarah, she could never sing it without screaming every note and even then she'd proably be flat. boggess would be an amiable sarah brown though.

Well it's harder considering russell is deceased so a female adaption of weekend at bernies with rosalind as bernie the corpse and ripley transporting the body around.

Meryl streep?

[henrikegerman]

I previously said Meryl as Margaret of Anjou

Now I say that someone should finally make a film of de Beauvoir's The Mandarins with Meryl as Anne. Technically she might be too old, but it's unstated that Anne is de Beauvoir's prototype and would have been her age - late 30s - early 40s - right after the war when the story is set.

Guess I'm seeing Meryl as French these days, must be all that French cooking she just did.

Jennifer Ehle and Stephen Dillane, reunited

Like it, Random. A lot! Your move!

[random person 112]

Posted: 11/11/11 at 7:21pm

(I know i've suggested her before but i want these two together just to see what would happen.) Sherie rene scott and idina menzel.

[Drew Fitzsimmons]

Posted: 11/13/11 at 4:16am

Idina and Sherie as Velma and Roxy.

David Tennant and Kristen Bell.

[random person 112]

Posted: 5/1/12 at 7:36pm

(I would love to see Sherie as Roxy, not sure about Idina as Velma though.) David as Bill Snibson and if Kristen can do the accent Sally Smith in Me and My Girl.

Kristin Chenoweth (I want to see if someone has the same idea as me here.) Updated On: 5/1/12 at 07:36 PM

[henrikegerman]

Posted: 5/1/12 at 8:44pm

Kristen Chenoweth as Mabel in Mack and Mabel (hard because I think Lily Garland is the perfect role for her and it's going to happen)

Christopher Walken and Blair Brown

[ChildrenwillListen]

Posted: 5/1/12 at 8:49pm

Dan and Diana in Next to Normal?

Laura Bell Bundy and Kate Shindle (reunited)

[random person 112]

Posted: 5/1/12 at 8:52pm

(I was dreaming of her as Annie in Annie Get Your Gun, she'd be a little unorthodox but i think fantastic.) Christopher Walken as Alfred the third and Blair as Claire.

^I actually thought about her as Annie as well.

[random person 112]

Posted: 5/2/12 at 4:21pm

^(I don't know if this is really fair but since many said at the time due to her standby status she wasn't able to fully take on the role like she would have had she been doing it full time so...)
Laura Bell Bundy as Glinda and Kate Shindle as Elphaba.

[The Josh]

Posted: 5/2/12 at 6:51pm

^Now Laura Bell Bundy and Kate Shindle might just encourage me to make a trip over to the Gershwin... probably not.

And now, to continue the game:
Alison Brie and Norm Lewis
