Another part I would be dreadful in is The Scarecrow in The Wiz. I say this because when I was in 10th grade, I was in the ensemble of this show, and actually the u/s for this part. Why they had a 5'0' girl (at the time) soprano understudying this part is beyond me. I thank the Lord I never actually had to go on in this role.
Some fine casting...

When someone blunders, we say that he makes a misstep. Is it then not clear that all the ills of mankind, all the tragic misfortunes that fill our history books, all the political blunders, all the failures of the great leaders have arisen merely from a lack of skill in dancing. - Moliere
JOSHUA...when you sing that high does it even sound GOOD?

Suit on up and come brace my sword
You look back when the pieces are missing
Hollowed out hope that no time can restore."

Anything requiring me to be skinny! Anything with lots of real dancing. Oh, if only there were roles for the voluptuous sopranos of the world. =) If I could belt, I could be Tracy Turnblad! Yay!

i have to second luvtheEmcee, i can't sing, can't dance and probably couldn't act either. but i'm an excellent fan of people with talent.
you know what they say, "if you can't be an athlete, be an athletic supporter."
Finish each day and be done with it. You have done what you could. Some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; begin it well and serenely and with too high a spirit to be enbered with your old nonsense. ~ Emerson
I can't sing and dance no matter how hard I try, so that means...oh wait...everyone on Broadway!!! Well...I can sing well enough to score a role like maybe Joanne from Rent..or Kate Monster/Lucy from Avenue Q, but my dream is to be Mimi- but seeing as I'm white and can't sing like Daphne Rubin-Vega and can't dance, I won't make that. Also, I can't do Elphaba- I would get cast as Galinda, which makes me angry. Oh well
