Ooh, here's another production for all three of us to be in, L5Y! Wicked! I'll be Elphie (which continues the trend of me getting into your pants) and Daisy will be Galinda/Glinda (which continues her trend of being the pretty girl [Beautiful Bethany, or so says Emily Skinner!]). Anybody else want to join our production?
Billy, I prefer the Scarecrow for 3 reasons:: 1.) He's a friend of Dorothy ( pun intended) 2.) The Tinman stuffs him (draw your own conclusions) 3.) He is very limber (that can be very handy at times!)
But since this is WICKED, I call Glinda! "It's good to see me, isn't it?" "They're JUST shoes... get over it"

Hey, I just reread that! BroadwayDUDE, I was already cast as Glinda by Miss Flaemmchen!!! No stealies!
And robactorguy, why, yes! I suppose I am a "mighty belter"! (I'm sorry, that phrase just made me... laugh. Hehe.)
Funny story... I've just been made a second alto in our ensemble piece in class. HOW funny is that? All last semester I was given all the soprano songs, and this semester they put me way down in the basement and my first song is "Naughty Baby." I'm curious to see what other solo pieces I'm given this semester. *sigh* I TOLD them I was a mezzo... I knew! I knew what I should be singing! LOL. Ew... no more "Letter to the Children," thanks. (WHAT was that, Flae?!!??!)
