Posted: 8/28/06 at 1:56pmI can't believe that anyone would be interested in seeing this tired old show, again! Besides, hasn't everyone already played Rizzo?

don't know if there is any other thread on this, but here is a link that mentions Grease coming back to Broadway

why?
<--- the set of A Midsummer Night's Dream that I was assistant stage manager for during the 2007 season at the STNJ outdoor stage.
-Dre- You must remember all the same that at the crux of every game is knowing when it's time to leave the table... And it's important to be artful in your exit. No turning back, you must accept the con is done... It was a ball, it was a blast. And it's a shame it couldn't last. But every chapter has to end, you must agree.

There's a special kind of people known as show people. We live in a world full of dreams. Sometimes we're not too certain what's false and what's real. But we're seldom in doubt about what we feel.

We know.
Which is why the "Who as Rizzo" question was posed.

Posted: 9/1/06 at 4:56pmI don't really like the idea of Sara Ramirez or Shoshana Bean in the role. I think they should start casting Rizzo's that have more sex appeal and are younger (like the original Rizzo). Hopefully this revival won't need to do stunt casting due to the tv show.

Posted: 9/1/06 at 4:58pmRamirez and Bean are totally wrong for this role...

"People that excel in the arts understand that the journey is the reward...the result an added bonus. Every day I act or train is a blessing and a dream come true. If Broadway beckons so be it. I have a personal definition of success that is unshakable by a possibly unobtainable goal." -HamletWasBipolar

Posted: 9/2/06 at 1:50amI doubt Ramirez would take another supporting role.

Posted: 9/2/06 at 2:03amI love Sho and Sara, but I have to say no to this one. They should be better roles than Rizzo, they are both more much more talented than that.

Posted: 9/2/06 at 12:42pmStockard Channing, she was the absolute best Rizzo there was.

Um..yeah..let's wheel Stockard Channing out there for "We Go Together."
*edit*
I'm aware that Stockard Channing is not old enough to be in a wheelchair, I personally adore her, but I wanted to make the point of how absurd the suggestion was.

Your post was funny, minus the edit.
Sarah Silverman as Rizzo!

Posted: 9/2/06 at 3:51pmprinceton, it was a joke. I thought that was fairly obvious, given many of the previous responses. Stockard was too old for Rizzo when she originally played her in the movie, so obviously at now age 62, it wasn't a serious suggestion.

Posted: 9/2/06 at 5:01pmI'd go with Daphne Rubin-Vega.
"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter
