it's only going to work if the girls are relatively young, if you ask me. a lot of the women mentioned here are a bit long in the toorh to play the roles properly.

someone not mentioned so far: Megan McGinnis & Jenny Powers.

Tonya Pinkins: Then we had a "Lot's Wife" last June that was my personal favorite. I'm still trying to get them to let me sing it at some performance where we get to sing an excerpt that's gone.
Tony Kushner: You can sing it at my funeral.

I don't even like the show, but that's a pretty hot pairing.

I think some ideas make more sense than others. Considering relative height helps...

Leslie Kritzer is many inches shorter than Laura Bell, and Megan McGinnis are not in the same ballpark height-wise. Megan is pretty short, and Jenny is fairly tall.

Chenoweth and Gettlefinger? I think the height difference might be an issue there

And also: any two of these three:

Karen Olivo
Mandy Gonzalez
Eden Espinosa

Morosco, that post made my day, but they would have to start with "the trolley song", and then seque.
