But like some people I don't quite see Tarzan as a broadway show just yet. How about Aladdin for a broadway show. I got a cast!

Aladdin-Adam Fleming
Jasmine-Christy Carlson Romano
Genie-Nathan Lane
Sultan-Jeff Brooks
Jafar-Samual.E.Wright
Iago-John Tartaglia
Abu-Hunter Foster
Carpet-Kristin Chenoweth

Way back when, when this movie first came out, I thought yeah! they could make this into a musical. But with all the Disney crap-pola there now all I can say is "Please for the love of God DON'T!
Thank you for letting me vent. I feel much better.

I have to say that your carpet casting is brilliant.

[WickedDude]

Why thank you Matt_G. What do you all think of my casting for Aladdin and Jasmine?

"Tarzan"
Tarzan-Matthew Morrison
Jane-Nicole Kidman, Catherine Zeta Jones

not familiar with rest of characters...I think Gavin and Matt should switch leads on this one

"The Little Mermaid"
Ariel-Sutton Foster or Kerry Butler, Susan Egan, whoever did the Arial singing voice for the movie
Prince Eric- Gavin Creel, David Elder
Ursula- can't think
King Triton- can't think
Sebastion- some Jamaican guy
Grimsby- who? was he the skinny old guy with the ponytail at the castle, lol - Dick Latessa

Horrible. Idina is the only Jasmine and Norbert or Adam should be Aladdin. Joel Grey as the Genie and Randy Harrison as Abu.

Sorry Matt_G but Adam Fleming does have the hair. And Christy Carlson Romano is spunky like Jasmine. And if Alan Menken consents he might put "To Be Free" the solo for Jasmine at California Adventure's version of the show.

You know how I feel. I don't see anything unless there are people from Wicked or Rent in it.

How about Jai Rodugiez as Iago?

Adam Fleming is an INCREIBLY talented young man who has appeared on Broadway as Sketch and a Link Larkin cover in Hairspray. He was most recently seen as Lucas in BARE, where he also understudied Jason and Matt. Prior to these, he was seen as Eddie in the first national of Mamma Mia and off-Broadway as Ack-Ack in Starmites 2001. His regional credits include Pippin (Lewis), Music Man (Tommy Djilas), and Joseph and the Amazing.. (Pharaoh). He also sand at XL's Twisted Cabaret Monday.

Adam is a HIGHLY underrated performer. He would be a WONDERFUL Aladdin. Though I see Jessica Grove as Jasmine and Chris Sieber as Genie.

Though I'm not going to change Jasmine, I will change Genie to Chris Seiber Iago to Aldrin Gonzalez and Abu to Chris Frizgerald

mario Cantone would be a RIOT as Iago, though I doubt he'd do it since he turned down Timon in The Lion King

What about Deven May as Iago?

[broadwayguy2]

Posted: 7/5/04 at 7:43pm

I'd rather see Deven in Naked Boys Singing

[WickedDude]

Posted: 7/5/04 at 7:47pm

Okay how about oh I don't know... John Tartglia as Iago?

[broadwayguy2]

Posted: 7/5/04 at 7:48pm

J-Tart would be funny

[WickedDude]

Posted: 7/5/04 at 7:53pm

How about this (and I'm not going to change Aladdin or Jasmine)

Aladdin-Adam Fleming
Jasmine-Christy Carlson Romano
Genie-Christopher Sieber
Jafar-Samuel.E.Wright
Iago-John Tartglia
Abu-Aldrin Gonzalez
Carpet-Kristin Chenoweth

as long as cheno is the carpet, I'm happy

[broadwayguy2]

Posted: 7/5/04 at 7:54pm

Romano can't sing!!!! People will be aiming missles at the flying carpet

[Matt_G]

Posted: 7/5/04 at 7:55pm

But than they'd hit cheno.

[WickedDude]

Posted: 7/5/04 at 7:57pm

She was Belle in Beauty and the Beast! And she has an album coming out! Snice when can't she sing BroadwayGuy2? Oh and Matt_G Cheno will be the carpet just in The "A Whole New World" sequence. Updated On: 7/5/04 at 07:57 PM

[broadwayguy2]

Posted: 7/5/04 at 7:58pm

just because a person has an album doesn't mean they can sing. And just because she did Beauty and The beast DOESN'T mean she was any good

[WickedDude]

Posted: 7/5/04 at 8:01pm

Snice WHEN can't she sing?
