Posted: 1/21/06 at 9:37pmI want to do Olive from 25APCSB so badly. That is the one I want to do most that is on Broadway right now. Over all, there are way too many.

Posted: 1/21/06 at 10:45pmI REALLY want to play a female Snoopy in YAGMCB... (Which might be a possibility, because the director at my school is looking for a female) I can't act really well, but I CAN ham things up-and Snoopy is perfect for that!

First, I would have a sex change, then I would perform in Wicked as Glinda.
But as a guy, I would like to be Sky Masterson in Guys and Dolls.

I would also like to try my hand at Nicky/Trekkie Monster/Bad Idea Bear #1/Singing Moving Box/Ricky's Voice/Newcomer in Avenue Q.
Maybe if they decide to revive Beatlemania on Broadway, I could play John Lennon. (But I would have to get myself a Rickenbacker first.)
I would also do a better Eric Idle impression than David Hyde Peirce and be The First Swallow-Savvy Soldier/Sir Robin, the Not-So-Brave-as-Sir-Lancelot/The Guard Who Doesn't Hiccough But Tries to Get Things Straight/Brother Maynard in Spamalot.

I'd like to be Maureen in Rent. Her part is right in my range, and I go nuts whenever I sing Over the Moon for my friends. I can be very entertaining when I have too much sugar.
