If you could stunt cast the lead roles in Wicked by actors and actresses that could actually sing the score for one night, who would they be?
Elphaba- Naya Rivera
Glinda- Lea Michele
Fiyero- Nick Jonas
The Wizard-James Cromwell
Nessarose- Demi Lovato
Boq-?
Dr.Dillamond- Stephen Moyer
Madame Morrible- Meryl Streep
The only surprise there is you knowing who James Cromwell is.
Mine would be:
Elphaba: Ann Coulter
Glinda: Sarah Palin
Fiyero: Bill O'Reilly
Dillamond: Antoine Dodson

Wynbish, I know James Cromwell from American Horror story.
Seriously? Not even from Babe? What is going on with the youth of this world?!?
That wasn't the first time we worked with Frances Conroy...
Imagine Ian McShane as the wizard
Elphaba: Anthony Weiner
Glinda: Elliot Spitzer
The Wizard: Bill Clinton
Morrible: Nancy Pelosi
Nessarose: Elizabeth Warren
Fiyero: Madonna
Monkeys: Boehner, Cantor, Palin and Bachmann
^ I like that casting.
Elphaba: Lindsay Lohan
Glinda: Taylor Swift
The Wizard: Donald Trump
Morrible: Cloris Leachman
Nessarose: Amanda Bynes
Fiyero: Kanye West
Boq: Drake because Amanda would love that. :)
Flying Monkeys: Kim, Khloe, and Kourtney Kardashian. And Kris Jenner
And Baby North West can play baby Elphaba in the beginning.

Sarah Palin should do a one woman production of Wicked.

I can already see a number called "YOU'RE ALL UGLY" with Amanda Bynes as Nessarose.
Lady Gaga as Elphaba (that's actually a legit suggestion)
Ke$ha as Glinda
Russel Brand as Fyero
Harry Styles as BOQ
Jennifer Hudson as Nessarose
Glenn Close as Morrible
Ricky Martin as The Wizard

To be honest, Glenn Close as Madame Morrible doesn't bother me. I wonder if she'll be considered for the movie?
Elphaba- Ethel Merman
Glinda- Mary Martin
Fiyero- John Raitt
The Wizard- Zero Mostel
Nessarose- Edith Adams
Boq- Tommy Steele
Dr.Dillamond- Jack Gilford
Madame Morrible- Hermione Gingold
We can't do a stunt cast without the Stunt Cast Dame BROOKE SHIELDS!!!
For the record, OP, Lea Michele couldn't sing Glinda.
Catherine Russell in all roles, move it to the Snapple Theatre.
Bring back Eyedeena Menzel and Kristin ChenICan'tSpellHerLastName for the 10th ann. That's true stunt casting.

No, no, no. Jennifer Holliday has to play Elphaba.
With Carol Channing as Glinda.
@Visceral Yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

beautywickedlover-I like your casting. That's not bad at all. I would totally see that.
Ooooh! If Ian McShane were the Wizard, that role might actually have the punch I felt it needs instead of this bizarre sad clown vaudeville thing. I feel like there could be something miraculous done with that subtext, but it's never allowed to truly blossom as this has become a theme park family show.
Maybe there should be a one night only "(Really) Wicked" performance where the performers actually do get intense, menacing, and really mean! I'm talking full-on Actor's Studio line readings!!!
