What role in a musical should the person above you portray?

Straightforward enough, but in case you need an explanation:

Poster One: "Here is how this is done."
Poster Two: "Poster One should play Cosette from Les Misérables."
Poster Three: "I can see Poster Two as Danny from Grease."
And so on and so forth.

Since there is no one above me, I say that the person above me should portray the invisible, mute character from a non-existent musical.

Queen Uberta from The Swan Princess :wink:

EDIT- That's not a musical... :P

Prudy Pingleton from Hairspray!

I could see Prudence as Dolly Levi from Hello, Dolly!, for some reason. As for you Panfan, I'm not sure.

lord-of-sith......hmmmmm if there was a Star Wars musical, I'd say you would be in the lead villain role but there isn't a Star Wars musical...yet :lol:

So I'll have to say The Wizard from Wicked :)

Swan Princess is a musical! Local programs are allowed to use the script, with permission, and it most certainly IS a musical!

Anyway, as for you, Harry Beaton from Brigadoon.

Prudence would be perfect as the delightfully over-the-top Madeline (of "Midnight with Madeline") in It's Always Fair Weather. Music is indeed better than words!

Albert

Cosmo Brown from Singin' in the Rain? That may work...

This is semi-related.. You said you wrote plays before, Alby, I would LOVE to read them! :D

I was going to suggest Albert be Finch (F-I-N-C-H) from How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying.

The Artful Dodger in Oliver, perhaps.

I want to play Zazu, actually. Rafiki is female in the theatre productions, but I would love portraying Zazu. I was made to sing "The Morning Report". Alas.
