Would Sara Ramirez be considered stunt casting? I guess probably since she is on Grey's Anatomy now.
Anyway, I know she is too old now, but I can totally picture her playing Mimi in Rent.

I don't think LaKisha has the personality for Effie, my vote is still with Jennifer Hudson. However, Syesha would make an awesome LORRELL/Deena.

Christina Aguilera - Lucy, Jekyll & Hyde

"Melinda Doolittle as Effie in Dreamgirls... if she put on some weight. "
There is nothing specifically stating that Effie must be "curvy" or the largest of the three.

The entire "Heavy Heavy" section is supposed to be indicative of Effie's size compared to the other girls.

Posted: 5/1/08 at 11:44pmI don't think that counts as stunt casting since Sutton is more than qualified to play that part. I agree with you, that would be interesting to see!

Posted: 5/2/08 at 3:19amSutton Foster and Sara Ramirez are Tony-winning actresses who have graced the Broadway boards multiple times. There is nothing that says stunt-casting about them.
