Now that im 20 and too old, I feel kind of sad that I will never get to play Annie in Annie, Mary In The Secret Garden and Dorothy In The Wizard Of Oz...(unless i go to a community theatre) :::sigh:::

Amneris in Aida. I would be the best Amneris in the world. You'd just have to alter the story a little, change a couple of pronouns, have the handmaidens turn into models stylin the latest in Abercrombie and Fitch.


Hey, it could happen!

Ozian #3! I wanna be him! Only because his one liner is "The GOODNESS SCORNS THE WICKED!" The best line throughout the entire show. That's my dream.

I was robbed of Judd the last time I did Oklahoma...well the guy that got Judd happened to be great, but if he didnt audition....

And my Hieght has robbed me of playing Jack in ITW, Bat Boy, and any other young character...I feel I wont be on stage till Im 30+ because of my height and Im not Mr Tune...sigh

Eponine in "Les Miz." The girl who got it has a better voice than I do, but I hated how she played the character as a whiny little girl. Eponine is a much stronger character than a lot of actresses give her credit for, and that just drives me wild.

Having played a lovely lady though, I can say that it's lots of fun. Nothing like being the whore who drives Fantine to selling herself :)

I'd do anything to be Eponine someday! Haha (oringinal huh?) and I'd also love to be Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz someday.. that could happen. =) And I wish I'd been into performing when I was younger so I could have been Annie. =)
