Never really thought about it to be honest! I suppose if i were female i'd like to play Nancy in Oliver! because she has the best song and her character develops so much.
Jesus Loves You... Everybody else thinks you're an idiot!
Fiyero-wicked, Collins-RENT(i'm a white girl so i think it'd be great), laurie in Little Women, hmm... Freddy in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, Raoul in Phantom(idk why...)
just tell maureen you forgot her cowbell because you were busy getting stoned. she'll understand.
Oh, there are so many I can hardly count! XD First and foremost, Toby from Sweeney Todd. Aaah, how I'd love to play that. Next, Zangara or the Balladeer from Assassins. And another dream role of mine is Jack from Into the Woods. Giants in the Sky is such an incredible song.
Lastly, anyone from Bee. But probably Chip the most. Getting up there every day and throwing candy at an audience while singing about an erection in a geeky scout uniform and large glasses has got to be incredibly fun and freeing. Updated On: 11/16/05 at 08:15 PM
Forgot about Sweeney & Jekyll/Hyde. And Herod in JCS.
Also- some roles I would love to play if I had the voice/age/look for it: Fosca- Passion Mme Thenardier (sp?)- Les Mis (tho' i think I could pull this one off, given the chance) Aldonza/Dulcinea- LaMancha (auditioning for this one in the spring- eep!) Imogene Herdman- Best Christmas Pageant... (sorry, just did this show...) Mme Morrible- Wicked Lola- Damn Yankees Lady MacBeth Medea ...so many others...

I would love to play Kim is Miss Saigon, but it'll never happen unless there's an extremely controversial production of it. Other roles I'd like to play: Mark or Roger - Rent Jamie - The Last 5 Years Freddie - Chess Emcee - Cabaret Bobby Strong - Urinetown Jonathan - tick, tick... BOOM!
Evita because thats just what the show needs, a touch of star quality! The Phantom in the Phantom of the Opera, just because it has a great score. The Lady of the Lake because of Diva's Lament. Brave Sir Robin because of the song You can't suceed on broadway Freddie in Chess it has a great score. Muriel in DRS because she steals the show with What was a woman to do
