Your Dream Casts, Part 2#0

Posted: 7/22/05 at 10:18pm

Given that there have been about 10,000 "dream cast" or "movie cast" threads, I figured I would start a definitive thread (I know there already is a dream cast thread, but I don't feel like searching for it). So, rather than clutter, post your dream casts here. I'll go first:

SALOME
Salome-Lynn Collins
Herod-Jeremy Irons
Herodias-Vanessa Redgrave
Iokannan-Billy Crudup

I think she's referring to Kelly Clarkson. I don't think she's very well suited to that role. I could see her on Broadway though. I'd love to see her sing Florence Vassey in a concert version of Chess. She'd have a killer "Nobody's Side."

I would LOVE to see Kelly on Bway! Just not in B&B. Maybe Maureen in RENT, providing she can do the comedy, which I think she MIGHT be able to do!

But if's she's in Rent I can see her singing "Take me for I am for all that's meant to be, and if you give a damn take me baby............take me baby..............................................................................................or leave me."
