Just for fun :) If you could choose to be in (or star in) ANY currently running Broadway show, which would it be? Which part?
Perhaps it's just because the movie came out, but I'm in a Hairspray mood lately - I'd love a stab at Penny! Also, annyy of the three ladies in Jersey Boys.

Currently? I'm not sure.
Just closed this past weekend? Lizzie in 110 in the Shade.
But currently? I don't know. Someone asked me last night what my favorite current show is and I really couldn't answer. I have to find a new favorite. 
LIVE THAT LESSON!!!!!!

Well, I'm only going to say two leads that I may actually have a chance of playing at some point in the future (aka when I'm older and hopefully taller, and I have a few extra notes on top)...
The title role of Phantom
Adolpho in Drowsy

Posted: 8/1/07 at 11:43amWell, if we can say shows that recently closed, I would say File, Herbie, The Beast (or really any other male role in BatB), and (if I grew a foot lol) Kennedy/Jerry.

Well, my dream role is Mrs. Lovett in Sweeney Todd, but that's closed so I guess Carlotta in Phantom, Paulette in Legally Blonde, or Glinda or Elphie in Wicked. But those are all parts for someone way older than me so for my age maybe Thea in Spring Awakening? Just because I would love to say the line about the radical.

I'm totally going to get mocked, but 'Mary Poppins'. I just don't feel inspired to want to be in most of the current Broadway shows at present. If it were any Broadway show ever, or even if you'd asked a few weeks ago, my answer would've been totally different. But you didn't, so 'Mary Poppins' it is. ^_^

Posted: 8/1/07 at 2:24pmErnst in "Spring Awakening" is the only role I could actually delude myself into thinking I could be. So, I'll take it! Haha.
