Perfect Vehicle for Kristin Chenoweth?

In an interview with Broadway.com, Kristin Chenoweth said she wishes someone would write her an original show.

So, I'm curious...What would you write her? What would be the perfect vehicle for Kristin Chenoweth?

What about the new Marlene Dietrich musical she's supposedly doing?

And the Dolly Parton musical?

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."
--Aristotle

The interview was from 2010. So, a lot has changed. But I was just wondering what kind of musical someone would write for her.

I heard somewhere that Laura Bell Bundy was doing readings for the Dolly Parton musical.

I heard Ivy and Karen are both up for the Dolly Parton musical.

Let's not forget about the Tammy Faye Baker musical she's been talking about lately too!

I think Miss Kristin needs a theatrical intervention.

She's becoming a caricature. I'm worried for her. She's slowly slinking into campville. Seriously, Im worried for her. Theres no return from campville.

Oh, not what you meant? My bad.

kchenofan's computer is broken right now. This is her fridge. Now, you can leave a message, but say it slowly, so I can write it on a post-it note and stick it to myself.

I thought The Apple Tree was perfect for her. I'm still a little puzzled as to why that wasn't more successful.

She needs a good original dramatic role. I really think she could pull it off well.

Definitely a dramatic role needs to happen for her. Something as tragic as Mother in Ragtime... something vocally impressive with a dramatic focal point.

I still think she needs to do on the 20th Century She'd make it a HUGE hit. I don;t see her much as a dramatic actress...but she could surprise me.

I've often thought she would make a wonderful Titania in 'A Midsummer Night's Dream'. There she could combine her stella comedic timing and prove she is able to handle drama as complex as Shakespeare.

I heard Laura Bell Bundy will be doing "Chenoweth, the Musical"

Ok. It's about an amazingly talented comic soprano who gives a truly bad performance in a revival of a much beloved Bacharach/David musical after which she stars in a terrible camp tv show based on a campy book about southern church ladies and wants to return to Broadway either in a musical based on the life of a great singer, or another revival, or a completely original- whatever that means - show. She in stead chooses to write a musical about her own situation. The flop within a flop is called Surviving Campville and is a campy self lampooning nightmare of a show that becomes a hit by virtue of a dearth of other shows that season. The protagonist hates doing the show and tries to woo another actrress, let's call her Bella Lou Lundy, to take over so she can finally be free to do the revival of On The Twentieth Century she should have done in the first place. But Bella Loo prefers a new vehicle, a show about Dusty Springfield. Then she gets another plan. Get Stephen Sondheim to write a piece in the Times called The Trouble With Chastain Criscowip (yes, that's our heroine's mom de flop) thinking it will stop ticket sales. It doesn't and she wins a tony.

okay, barring a really good original musical for her, why not HELLO DOLLY? it is absolutely time to revive this great show, and Kristin could sing and dance rings around it. Listen up, Jerry Herman, what are you waiting for??

Small doses- I think she is very talented, but every time I watch an interview with her I want to scream at the TV/Computer- "can you be real for 2 seconds and not always ON?"

I had high hopes for her in Promises, saw two of her understudies in the show and her twice and liked the understudies better... of course it didn't help the one time I saw her when she was apparently having problems hearing the pit and walked all the way down stage after "Knowing When To Leave" and mouthed to the conductor "I Can't F***ing hear you!"- not very professional!

She's the lead Councilwoman in Campville. They renamed the town square. I so want to like her again, but she's turned orange and still milking the cutesy angle. Unbecoming.
