Roles You Wish You Could Play#0

What are the roles that you can't play because of your gender that you would love to play?

For me it's Mark in Rent or Judas in JCS


Am I cut out to spend my time this way?

Wow! Nice to see a lot of Marks. I thought that Roger was supposed to be the role that everyone wanted.

Christine ~ ALW POTO (I do NOT have the vocal range, I just love it)
Lady of the Lake ~ Spamalot .(Not exactly the range, but I love to sing those songs)
Elphaba ~ Wicked. (I would love to take after Kristy Crate, or (I think its Steph) Stephanie Block and do what I call "The mini cackle" in the last "bring me down" in "Defying Gravity)
Either Mimi or Maureen in Rent ~ I think more Mimi, but I love Maureen also...
Marian ~ The Woman in White (Or even Anne or Laura. All of those women roles are terrific. Marian's character develops through it, and I love the way she progresses through it)

Hard roles to choose from!


Velma (Chicago) would be fun. I loved seeing that musical. :)
