Wouldn't it be great if it were true? (Sorry for the headline, but it got you this far!)
Any thoughts?

Um, yes.
I think I might buy tickets to every show.

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:09pmthat would be great but I don't see Streep doing a year run on broadway. I know her name comes up a lot and I know she has done lots of theatre but no long term runs. She could make 2 or 3 movies in a year and make 20x what she would make on broadway.

She's never been in it for the money.
Anyway, this thread is all in fun. Who knows, for a limited run she might do it...

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:19pmLike I said, I would love to see her do it(I'd definitely make the trip to NYC from Boston) but usually for a show to make back their initial investment, Streep would have to stay for a while. There are other people who can explain that better. There are shows that make their money back quickly(ex.Sweeney) but a show like ALNM but would take longer sadly.

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:22pmDear Wiggum (love your avatar BTW). This thread is just a fantasy. However, the role is not terribly physical and was written for a "star" to be able to last awhile in it. Still, just a dream...

ok I'll go with it... I'll hope as well then
Like wickedgeek said, I'd love to see it on broadway. I saw a so-so production in Boston a few years ago.

Kline as Frederik?
I could also Malcolm Gets as Frederick!
Streep would be a great Desiree!
and I think it's time Glynis went on as Armfeldt
Petra should, I think, be an unknown.
Lauren Molina might make a good Anne (Frederiks wife, my mind drew a blank...)

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:31pmMalcolm might be too young. Who knows, maybe Johnny Depp. Hey, Cariou did both roles!

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:33pmJohnny Depp would make a good usher, you're right.
#14re: Streep/Kline in A Little Night Music revival.
Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:39pmDoes that mean Usher would make a good Depp?

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:41pmI think that means that the only thing Johnny Depp should have to do with ALNM revival would be as an usher, you know "ma'am A 101 is on the other side of the auditorium"

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:42pmI'm sure he'd bring alot to it. Would Tim Burton have to direct?

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:44pmYes. And the walls of the country home would be played by people in elaborate costumes who sing and dance and comment on the action

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:45pmNope, he's busy working with Jerry Herman re-hashing that Sweeney film...

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:46pmLoretta Swit is hardly unkown! A star of her magnitude isn't often found on Broaddway these days!

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:47pmthey've already cast Marissa Jaret Winkour. Sorry.

Posted: 8/26/06 at 9:47pmI spit up a little on that last one, Dollypop!

Only if I can play Anne.
Also, I've always thought Jake Gyllenhall would make a fantastic Henrick.

That casting might actually work!
Can he sing?
