ok, so, I'm not sure why Side Show was only such a short run since, well I was 7 then lol so I was not into broadway, but anyways
I would LOOOOOVE for this to be revived
and I know there is an age difference between them, but who else thinks it would be amazing to see Natalie Toro and Sutton Foster as Daisy and Violet??
any other suggestions on people?

Posted: 12/6/08 at 4:12pmI don't think those two look identical enough to play twins.

I think the obvious aesthetic difference of height and ethnicity would prevent that pairing.
I'm a proponent of Lisa Brescia + Anyone

At the time, the thought of a musical about conjoined twins, no matter how good it was, turned off a lot of people, including myself. But after hearing all about it, and seeing some film clips, I too would love to see this show revived.
Maybe with Sutton Foster and Mara Davi!

ding ding ding feline!
How amazing would they be together?!
I'm sure with the make-up/hair they could pull it off and it would be outstanding.

Posted: 12/6/08 at 10:24pmLisa Brescia was fabulous at the Kennedy Center. I don't see Sutton as either of the twins actually character wise. Natalie Toro- great voice, but not sure on the acting.

Posted: 12/6/08 at 10:27pmI think Foster would have difficulty with the pop elements in the score. I have a hard time getting the voices of Ripley and Skinner out of my head.

That would be an interesting pair, but I don't think they could pass for twins either.

"Brooke and Tiffany Engen?"
PiraguaGuy, that's kinda who I've had in the back of my mind. I didn't see Tiffany go on for anyone in Legally Blonde, but it was mentioned in a past thread and I was really intrigued by the idea. Does anyone know how they sing/act?

I saw Tiffany go on as Pilar in LB and Brooke go on as Prudy Pringle in Hairspray(on the same day also). They are very similar in their singing and how they act. Well they are twins...LOL.

Posted: 12/7/08 at 7:47amI also think they'd make a great Florinda and Lucinda in Into the Woods. I always pictured them as twins, and the last revival randomly had one of them be black and the other white.
#17re: Sutton and Natalie as Daisy and Violet
Posted: 12/7/08 at 7:59amI saw Brooke go on as Amber one night in Hairspray. She was really funny. I have not seen Legally Blonde off of MTV, so I did not even know Tiffany was in that until recently, so I can't comment on her performance.

Posted: 12/7/08 at 10:07amI saw Tiffany as Serena. She was great on the acting part. Her singing wasn't necessarily bad. But definitely not the best Serena I've ever heard. As for either of the twins...it takes special, SPECIAL voices to fill that score.

Posted: 12/7/08 at 10:34amWhat about the Alers sisters? Too old?
#20re: Sutton and Natalie as Daisy and Violet
Posted: 12/7/08 at 11:51amAlers sisters are definitely too old. As are the Velez sisters, one of which (Lauren) is on Showtime's "Dexter" so I doubt she'd have the time to do it.

Posted: 12/7/08 at 12:05pmwhatever happened to the condon-revised reading of this?

I don't really see the merrit in having actual twins.
Its a demanding score that requires powerhouse vocals, so why stunt cast?
#23re: Sutton and Natalie as Daisy and Violet
Posted: 12/7/08 at 12:15pmIf the Condon-shepherded revival happens next season as tentatively planned, the buzz is that Erin Davie and Betsy Wolfe will be used (the creative team was very happy with their performances in the workshop.)
