Re:Roles I'm dying to play... - 2008/01/21 02:52Definitely Christine from Phantom of the Opera (kind of cliche to say i want a lead, but it has been a dream of mine) (i need to get a LOT better at singing to play that role though)
My company may do R&H Cinderella next season, i would love to be one of the stepsisters (i absolutely LOVE the stepsister's lament and their costumes should be fun to wear)!!! The fairy godmother is good too, and every girl is probley going to want to be Cinderella. (though i wouldn't mind playing Cinderella)
I would love any role that is in some way comedic and fun and is likeable. Just my opinion but, I find it cliche to say you just want the lead role, the lead role isn't always the funniest and most likeable role, there is a lot of supporting roles that are GREAT and steal the show!!!!
I thought of another one, Amber Vontussle (sp?) from Hairspray! She is soooo mean, but i love her!!! Also: A Bride in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, Princess Winnifred or Lady Larken from Once upon a Mattress, oh and Cinderella or the Witch from Into the Woods
Yes i am editing again after several months: Belle from BATB (i love her personality and the songs she gets to sing (Home and Change in me)

Re:Roles I'm dying to play... - 2008/01/21 15:03Speaking of character actresses, me too! (but I'm also a great singer and would die to actually get to use my real singing voice in a show!)
for that reason, I woudl love to be:
Mother Superior in The Sound of Music Eulalie, the mayor's wife in Music Man Mrs. Lovett in Sweeney Todd Golde or Yente in Fiddler on the Roof Mrs. Potts in Beauty and the Beast Madame in Beauty and the Beast Miss Hannigan in Annie
Not all big parts, but roles that seem fun to do!
