LOLOLOL. Yes, Idina is too old to play Elphaba but Kristin is just the right age to play an 8 year old boy.

Cathy Rigby played the role well into her 50's.

Plus, I heard from someone in a video interview that they were looking for a boy. Not surprised if he is wrong.

I'm not saying that Kristin couldn't play Peter. I'm commenting on the theme of that article that was posted.

And the constant discussion of this damn WICKED movie is the most annoying and pointless topic this message board has ever had to endure.

I had thought that they would make a big deal about casting Peter. It seems like an awfully nonchalant comment about casting that he seems certain about but that hasn't been formally announced.

Apparently it will be announced on May 12th at NBC's upfront.

She sometimes makes me nuts but I would totally tune in to see her if they don't go with Pink. Not that I'm in a coveted demo.

Slightly off topic, but did anyone see Glee tonight? It almost seemed like Chris Colfer might have been trying to give a public audition for the part of Peter Pan. He did write the episode. It smells slightly like an agenda to me.

That would happen to me as well.

I was lucky enough to see Jonathan Hyde as Mr Darling/Hook, and he was fantastic.

I would kill to see him to the role again!

Serious question. People think Pink would actually do a TV musical?

And while we are speaking of NBC's up fronts, any word on if that Debra Messing pilot is a go? I heard great things from mutual friends attached to the show.

I think Pink would take the opportunity to do something new.

It's not like she doesn't know how to fly.

I don't pretend to know what Pink would or wouldn't do.

I'm assuming the apparatus she uses to fly in her concerts is similar to what she'd use to fly as Peter.

The last time I worked on Peter Pan we used Fly by Foy.

If Pink is Pan, than Colt must be Hook.

I'm drawing a blank on who Colt is.
