I would love to see him take a stab at Bobby (whatever happened to that gay Company? Did anything come of that reading?) or maybe Guido Contini. I would see him do Floyd Collins, as well. In addition to the previously mentioned roles, of course.

^ Ooh, I would like to see his Bobby. I also LOVE the Merrily idea-- Jake for Frank!

Producers could hit a goldmine if they found a vehicle for him and Lady Gaga to do together. I'm not really a fan of Gaga or what she did at the Oscars, but people went ga ga over it.

George in Sunday in the Park is an inspired idea. I also love the idea of Bobby in Company. 

 

I'd also love to see him take on Billy Bigelow in Carousel.

I love the idea of Georgio in PASSION. 

What about Sweeney? Opposite Emily Blunt?

Nightcrawler: The Musical

Patti LuPone in the Rene Russo role.

 

 

In all seriousness, I'd love to see him originate a role in a new musical. I'd love to see him in a Next to Normal or Rent-type show directed by Michael Mayer.

George?

I can't see him singing that part as well as it deserves to be sung. Claybourne Elder dragged the role down in the recent DC production because of his sub-par singing.

He should be Joe Gillis in a Sunset Blvd movie.

That's an excellent idea. And Ellen can be his Norma!

Stone in the long overdue revival of "City of Angels" and Matthew Morrison as Stine.  And then after six months, they can trade roles.
