Who should play Charlie & Frank in MWRA revival — Page 2

The ages of the Actors has always been a puzzling point of this show.
I think Sondheim and Prince cast younger actors to emphazise that
"Dreams don't die so hold on tight to your dreams"
is so ironic.
And in the original they go back to their younger selfs in the end.
It's a difficult piece, but that's why I love it so.

I'm surprised none of y'all theater junkies have caught the spelling error yet...

Well, we all know you certainly wouldn't want it to be. And with good reason, too!

For the record, smartass, I wasn't nitpicking just any old spelling error. You'd have kept me busy for ages if I were out to do such a thing. But to have an entire discussion about a character all while spelling his name wrong? Come on, people.

I thought maybe you'd finally grown up just a teeny, tiny bit. But then I realized that no in fact, I just hadn't *gasp* dared to set foot in a thread you might also be commenting in in a while! You really can't let me say a word without chomping the bait, finding something to antagonize me about, can you? Go find something else to do. Perhaps like, refining your sense of humor.

(What's next, now that we've had our first little run-in in a while, you're going to follow me around and go of your way to make snarky comments about anything and everything I post? You, my dear, seriously need a new shtick.)

Em - thanks for correcting the typo. It was driving me nuts, too.

And I would love to see Raul play Charley. I missed the Kennedy Center Sondheim productions.

It won't be a flop again if they put some hot actors in it.

Chris doesn't look any younger or older as Lonny Price did when he played the role

No question, Stephanie D'Abruzzo is my first choice for Mary.
