Of the things I'm right for (or will be eventually):
1. Sweeney, "Sweeney Todd"
2. John Wilkes Booth, "Assassins"
3. Javert, "Les Miserables"
4. George, "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf"
(and if I had to throw in a fifth, I'd say Hamlet)
Of things that would be a stretch:
1. Jekyll/Hyde, "Jekyll and Hyde"
2. The Phantom, "The Phantom of the Opera"
3. Biff, "Death of a Salesman"
4. Molina, "Kiss of the Spider Woman"
Of things that I'm totally wrong for:
1. Leo Frank, "Parade"
2. Tony, "The Most Happy Fella"
3. Richard, "Richard III"
