i did the show this summer.. and i was cast as it... actually the role was originally written for a guy in drag... and i spoke to the lyricist about it and he thought it was a great idea..

Well, that'd explain why Bea Arthur was in the workshop.

hahaha...thats funny... but in all seriousness it was a concept at one time to have it be a guy in drag.. but then they decided not to... but Dick Scanlan still thinks it works as a guy or a woman so really it can be a guy or a girl!!

NO! Stagedoor Manor's Mrs. Meers this summer was played by Emily Maltby (Richard Maltby's Daughter). I was there this summer (David in Company) and had many friends in Millie, but it was a traditional production, no crossdressing.
...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...

nope...french woods... actually the show works VERY well with Meers as a man.... and im not just saying that because i played it... it actually makes the reveal at the ending sooo much funnier... and it was very believable...i had people that didnt know if i was a man or a woman...it was very funny!
