Posted: 4/10/13 at 1:37pmMy dream role is the the emcee in Cabaret. The role in my opinion has such depth to it and seems like a role that you can have fun with but at the same time play it with a very creepy and eerie vibe, what's your dream role? Just curious :)

Posted: 4/10/13 at 1:40pmThis always comes as a surprise to people since it's an ensemble role, but my dream roll is the Gordon/The Man/Mr. Grey track in Rent.

Posted: 4/10/13 at 1:40pmIt will no doubt sound silly, but I've always wanted to play Elwood P. Dowd. Love the play. Love the part. Will probably never happen.

Posted: 4/10/13 at 1:46pm@PatronusYou know I often ponder on the fact that I had more fun being one of the nicest kids in Hairspray than i did playing prince Eric in the Little Mermaid.Strange right! But I get where you're coming from!

Posted: 4/10/13 at 10:09pmAs a middle aged father of three unmarried daughters, Tevye seems like the best fit. That said, my personal choice would be John Adams in 1776.

The "Noble track" in Little Me (preferably the 1998 or Australian version)
And, if Phantom of the Paradise ever gets its long-promised stage adaptation, either Swann or Leach. (Then again, I'd settle for "the guy in the House Band who gets killed in every song he performs.")

Gmerchant, sadly I didn't watch the revival, but from what I've seen and read it's not really my thing, not really a fan of the whole modern futuristic take on classic shows. I think the direction in which they went with the superstar number took away much of its power, as well. That being said many of my friends loved everything about it. And I must say I was obsessed with Josh's blue suit.

Posted: 4/13/13 at 10:51pmDavid "Davey" Gamble from "On A Clear Day You Can See Forever", with more of the original score ("Tosy and Cash", "Don't Tamper With My Sister" and regular versions os basically every song the 2011 Revival used) and the ending changed back to the original (they take a leap to explore "the chance of an extraordinary future", none of the David marries Warren crap, the point of the show is NOT that Harry Connick Jr gets over his dead wife NO ONE CARES).
