I think Rachel York and Roger Bart are fat too old for those parts...I would like to see John Cariani as Cornelius, THAT is perfect.

I think John Cariani is PERFECT for the role.
Rachel York is a grown woman, the part is supposed to be a little younger.

Evita - I would rather see Alice Ripley play Eva than Emily.
Hello, Dolly/Mame - Bernadette Peters and Bette Midler need to be either part in both these shows.
A Chorus Line - a bunch of new fierce dancer/singer/actors
Hair - the Actors Fund concert cast
Bye Bye Birdie - Matthew Broderick (Albert), Bebe Neuwirth (Rose), Cheyenne Jackson (Birdie), Sutton Foster (Kim), Jackie Hoffman (Mae - great choice, Munk!)
The Pirates of Penzance - don't do a revival

I thought the lady who played Irene in the 1994 revival was TOO old to play Irene.
Irene was a widow though.......age ain't nothing but a number

Possible Evitas - Alice Ripley, Carolee Carmello, Lauren Kennedy, Rachel York, Lisa Brescia.
If anyone says Idina Menzel for Evita I'm going to have to bite my own hand off. What's next? Idina for Dolly Levi?

Laura Benanti would also make a gorgeous Eva Peron.

My mom and I were just having this conversation! She thinks Idina Menzel should star in Funny Girl, even though that's not on your list. I disagreed, but the more I think about it, the more I do agree.

My DIVA list for revivals:
Christine Ebersole in Mame.
Faith Prince in Hello, Dolly!
Audra McDonald in Camelot.
Patti LuPone in Gypsy.
Kristin Chenoweth in Gentlemen Prefer Blondes.
Megan Mullally in Guys and Dolls.
Side note, unmasked, the Irene Molloy fr 1994 was Florence Lacey (a former Evita) and she was fierce. That voice is glorious. I would love to hear her sing the role of Mama Rose in Gypsy.
