I swear if I had the money I would produce a revival of Grand Hotel with Larkin. I would also consider Brian D'arcy James for the Baron. I have no clue who Id cast as elizaveta or Otto.

Ohhh, yes. I would definitely not mind a revival of Evita!

Also, in about ten to twenty years, a revival of Les Miserables. But only if I can play Madame Thenardier. (Let's see... in twenty years, I'll be... thirty-six. That's probably old enough.) Yes. And that cute little kid who plays Simba in Little Mermaid right now will be old enough to be Enjolras or something.

I'd love to see a revival of Hello Dolly.
I was in a production recently, and it opened my eyes to how awesome the show could be if done just right.
And I think with all the technology they can use on broadway now, it could be an amazing, visually stunning show.

Definitely Promises Promises if they keep the original choreography and I would love to see a fresh approach to Best Little Whorehouse in Texas. I'd also like to add I Love My Wife and Pump Boys and Dinettes to the list.

Simba in Little Mermaid... I think I may need to stop watching Disney musicals before I start saying things like, "Oh, you know, like Frollo in Mary Poppins." o_0

Apparently, not only am I calling Flounder 'Simba,' I'm also double-posting.

I once heard someone describe her (Ruthie Henshall) singing as sounding as though she's trying to swallow a whole meatball slightly larger than her windpipe. (The same person compared Michael Ball's singing to sounding as though he's sitting on a washing machine on spin cycle and Colm Wilkinson's to a man with a paralyzed lip trying to eat cottage cheese.) --- Schmerg_The_Impaler
