How about Harvey Feirstien as Mr.Mushnik or Jesse L. Martin as Audrey 2 in Little Shop of Horrors? That be interesting to see Johnny Depp play the Emcee, I could see him doing interesting things for that character.

Hm, I'd like to see Jessica Lee Goldyn as Glinda from Wicked, just to see if it would work. I'm not 100% sure it would, but hey its worth a try.

I RESURRECT THE ANCIENT THREAD!!!!


Jonathan Groff as Jamie in L5Y. Give him a few years.

[WordedGrace]

Posted: 3/11/07 at 11:56pm

I'm sorry to disagree with some of the choices but Reese playing Glinda??? I shudder at that thought. Her singing in Walk the Line was at best weak and without anything distinctive for that role. C'mon the notes that Glinda hits are out of her range..unless they are going to bring a computer to help her out it going to happen!

[MerMaggieGalinda]

Posted: 3/11/07 at 11:59pm

Jonathan Groff would also make a dreamy Marius.

Posted: 3/12/07 at 7:47am

id like to see Goldie Hawn as the Baker's Wife.

[RockabyeHamlet]

Posted: 3/12/07 at 8:25am

As much as I love Michael Cerveris, I absolutly Can't see him anywhere near Phantom.

I do think he would make a decent Bobby in Company though.
Lauren Molina would make an amazing Clara in Light In the Piazza. And I think Kristin Chenoweth is a bit old for the part of Johanna, and not naive enough.

And I know it's been rumored, but I'd go back to see Ann Harada as Mdme. Thernaider (sp?) in Les Mis.

Ewan McGregor as Marius in Les Mis

Mare Winningham as Sally in Follies

That's so weird. I was just watching Georgia the other night and the thought came into my mind. Mare's got a wonderful voice. So haunting. It also really made me wish I could have seen Jennifer Jason Leigh as Sally in Cabaret.
