"IF YOU COULD BE CAST IN ANY PLAY, WHICH PART??
Sun, 16 July 2000, 04:29 pmIF YOU COULD BE CAST IN ANY PUBLISHED PLAY, MALE OR FEMALE, WHICH PART WOULD YOU CHOOSE AND WHY?
This is not a CHEAP ATTEMPT to rise from number 7 to number 1 in the top 15 poll, although, I have thought about it..hehehe.
So people's put your thinking caps on and really think about what part was made for you. Do NOT confine yourselves to what you would naturally be cast in, go against type/age/sex/and abilityn if you need to.., and tell us WHY????
If anyone guesses which character part I would dearly love to play, you will win two complimentary tickets to my next show... second prize is three tickets..hehhe

That's easy; Hamlet. I've got angst, just no penis.

The title role in 'the Prime Of Miss Jean Brodie(played M...m..m..mary M...m....mcgregor a million years ago-am now old enough to play Miss McKay,so I've missed the boat-but I'd love to backtrack a few years,play "jean" and follow that with Miss Mckay to complete the trilogy!!!!!

Lady MacBeth- I've always had a lot of sympathy with her, I've always wanted to be her, even if it meant putting up with such a pain of a husband.
(safe to say that as I'm far too old to achieve one of my life-long ambitions!!)

I want to be two (teehee...is that ok?). One is Isabella from Shakespeare's Measure for Measure and the other is the Transvestite guy from The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Wow...what a contrast yeah!!

I know I sulked off a few days ago, vowing I would never return, but this was too good to resist (good on ya Garry)...
MACBETH and HAMLET: see Leah's post.
PETER PAN: I can fly (no, really) and I am yet to grow up. One of my all-time favourite stories.
JOAN OF ARC: my hero.
HENRY V: for the St Crispin's Day speech (can anyone beat K.B for that?)
MERCUTIO: the wit, the attitude and a cool death scene.
ANY SWASHBUCKLING, SWORD-WIELDING, SHARP-WITTED TYPE WITH ATTITUDE AND A CHIP ON THE SHOULDER: Just 'cause I can fence a little, I have an attitude problem, and I want to swing off a chandelier(all those who know me will read this and go 'gee, BIG surprise there'...).

Garry, I'm guessing that you really want to play that "always depended on the kindness of strangers" gal (the name escapes me, being much more of a Musicals girl), as hard as it would be to follow in Marge Simpson's footsteps! Do I win the tickets?
Me? I want to play just about every Musical Theatre role that Bernadette Peters and Alison Fraser have played on Broadway. Non-musical? Beatrice in Much Ado would be lovely.

Years of alcohol abuse has been with one thing in mind - to get it right when I play the Porter in Macbeth.
As for you Gaz-meister, I reckon your hangin' out to play the gay son in The Sum of Us. Now who would I cast as your love interest????????
P.S. I notice that once again Leah has attempted to lower the tone of a debate. I suggest we wash her mouth out with soap!

Realistically:
Iago (Othello)
Berowne (Love's Labour's Lost)
Arnold Beckoff (Torch Song Trilogy)
In my dreams:
Henry V (too old)
Lady M (wrong sex, although after Grant's comments at tonight's Green Room, re: cross-gender casting in Shakespeare, who knows? Hey, maybe me and Garry T as the MacBeths... him him, me her. Eh?! Eh?!!!)
Hamlet (I've done it once, and in this day and age, those actors who haven't done it at all think you're being greedy for wanting to do it again... but I'd still like to have another crack at it)
