Eponine from Les Mis. Her songs are so poetic and emotional, even if her character is the typical girl-in-unrequited-love.
Eponnie in Les miz: because I can sound like France Ruffelle.
Lorraine/Francine and others in Jersey Boys: because my singing voice is like Sarahs in the song "My Boyfriends Back" and sometimes I like to sing like Erica in the song "I Still Care"
Janet Van Der Graff in the Drowsy Chaperone: because Sutton Foster ROCKS!
Mrs.Lovvet in Sweeney Todd: because Patti LuPone is my idol.
Evita Peron in Evita: because even though i'm 12 years old i can belt like Patti in the song "A New Argentina"
Hey Sutton Foster had librotto at age ten!

Mimi-Rent
Kate-Avenue Q
Kate-Lippa's The Wild Party

Without regard to gender, definitely Mark Cohen. I just relate to him so completely.
I would also love to play Eliza Doolittle.
However, I have no singing voice, so all this is pure fantasy!
I would love to play anyone of the male parts in Smokey Joe's
Also:
Seymour in Little Shop
So many, but mainly, Fosca, Dot, Mrs. Lovett...anyone see a patern?
Basically all of Sondheim's women.
Spelling Bee- Olive or Rona
Avenue Q-Kate/lucy
Wicked-Any female role
Into the woods- Cinderella/the witch/The Bakers wife
The Light in the Piazza-Clara
Last 5 years- Cathy
Songs for a new world- the girl who sings christmas lullabye
Hairspray- Anyone

In addition to what I've already said....
Am I the only one who thinks Madame Thenardier would be the Les Mis role that would be the most fun to do? I look like an Eponine or Cosette, but if I had my choice I'd rather be a Thenardier! I find ingenues boring.
