I really want Patti LuPone to sing "If I Were a Rich Man". Does that count for anything?

Donna Murphy would be excellent in "Lady in the Dark"!

I would have loved to have seen Dorothy Loudon or Barbara Harris as Sally in "Follies"

Dorothy Loudon or Bea Arthur or Karen Morrow or Kaye Ballard as Rose in "Gypsy"

Gene Kelly as Buddy in "Follies"

Bette Midler as Gorgeous in "The Sisters Rosensweig"

Ive said it once ill say it a million times! Kiss of the Spiderwoman starring Cathrine Zeta Jones. Shed be sensational. And with the talk of a J & H movie being made I want to see anyone other than johnny depp playing jekyll/hyde. I love depp but he has done enough musical singing for me. However anyones better than hasselhoff.

It's obviously not going to happen, but I wish Frank Sinatra could have played Bobby in Company. I would have payed a lot to see that.

"Christine Ebersole as the Drowsy Chaperone in The Drowsy Chaperone"

She did play the Drowsy Chaperone in The Drowsy Chaperone at the first NYC showing of it at NAMT in 2005. She was wonderful!

Kate Shindle as Elphaba.
I'd pay good money to see that. I feel that she doesn't get to show off her amazing talent as much in LB. I'd love to see her take on the character of Elphaba and sing those songs. She'd defy the $*** out of gravity. :)

Sara Ramirez-Velma-Chicago

And for that note, she can play any role for me that requires looking sexy. LOL! I am straight, but something like that would definitely make me question it because she has that dirty hot thing going on. I also just think though that she should revive her role as The Lady of the Lake.

"Megan Mullally as the Drowsy Chaperone"

Haha I was always under the impression the actual character of the chaperone was based off of Karen Walker. "Always [leave/live] while you can."
