just a quickie!
Sun, 29 Aug 2004, 11:23 amhey there everyone,
just a quick question!
What is the part you most long to play??? the one part that you would give your eye teeth for, that part that yes, you WOULD kill for!!!
play/musical
PLAY - for me it has to be BRICK from Cat on a Hot Tin Roof - Tennesse Williams, Paul Newman inspired me to no end with his performance in that film and the play is riddled with subtext that could be nothing but a joy to unravel on stage...
MUSICAL - now, this one changes depending on what mood im in and if i've just seen a show etc. right now it would have to be... Sweeney Todd, only heard the soundtrack but I cant get enough of "Not While I'm Around"
Well, love and peace to all!

ps. the facts of life -

Sorry people, I canÂ’t give you a definitive list but I can give you a short-list
ACTING
PLAY: Well, I am currently in the process of pencilling one of my dream roles off the list – Jack in “The Importance of Being Earnest”.
Others on the list: Lady Bracknell in “Earnest”;
Salieri in “Amadeus”;
Gloster in “King Lear”.
MUSICAL: Well, apart from the fact that I will never get the chance to play Mama Rose in “Gypsy”…
Albin in “La Cage aux Folles”;
Toddy in “Victor/Victoria”;
Max Bialystock in “The Producers”.
Oh, and of course the Tour Guide (a speaking not singing role) in Phillip GlassÂ’ opera Akhnaten.
Musicals that I would be more than happy to just be in the ensemble of:
“Sunday in the Park with George”;
“Sweeney Todd”;
“Passion”
(hmm.. detecting a trend with this oneÂ…).
