I'd see it. But I also think " Sarah Paulson wants to tackle the goat" (per your headline) is a delicious prompt for an AI-generated image!

Yesss please!
So for this...but I also wouldn't be at all disappointed seeing Metcalf either in a revival. In either case, its definitely about time for a revival!

Not to derail this topic, because I love THE GOAT... but the mention of Laurie Metcalf's name made a Laurie / Sarah pairing as Violet / Barbara in AUGUST: OSAGE COUNTY flash through my head. And I needed to put that out into the universe.
Back to Albee!
Always surprised that this play isn't produced more.
I'm dreaming of Sarah Paulson and Robert Downey Jr. He has the charm that the role really needs.

I'm not. 1) You have to budget for destroying most of your set at every performance. 2)It just isn't that good. All novelty.

So in for this as well! Yet another play in desperate need for a revival.
Sarah is all wrong for this. Give us Viola Davis

I don't agree that Sarah is at all wrong, but Viola would be incredible in this role.
