I was re-watching Yentl on TV the other night and thought what a great Broadway musical this would be. And wouldn't Idina Menzel be perfect in the title role? Does anyone know if this has ever been discussed (bringing a Yentl musical to Broadway and/or having Idina Menzel star)?

Oh, Lord. If people thought Barbra was too old for it...

Ha, I know. I would just suspend disbelief. Anyway, Barbra was great in the movie (even though she was around 41) and I think Idina Menzel could do the role justice (notwithstanding her 40-ishness).

I would love to see Jesse Mueller do this if it's ever even considered.

If Idina can do it, so can Kristin.

You honestly think Idina can pass of as a man?

Nah. The movie is a watered down version of the wonderful Bashevis Singer short story.
Do the straight play version with Chloe Sevigny and I'd be interested.
