Is there some part in a musical that you think you'd be perfect for?#1

Does anyone have a role in a Broadway musical that you know you'd be perfect in? Mine is Helen Burns in JANE EYRE. I really want this part! I even look like like her as she's described in the book.

What about you guys?

All this fretting about how no one can play Max in "The Producers" -- for God's sake! I'm right here in Oakland, CA. Send the limo. Like Lane, I've also the "other Max" in "Laughter on the 23rd Floor."

Unfortunately, the title role in Waiting for Godot never shows up. I would love to play Vladamir in that one, as well as Leo in the producers. its the role i was born to play!

I am perfect for Seymour in LSOH.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Grey up my hair and put me in a suit, and I could do a mean Walter in Chess - Broadway or Sydney versions preferred, at least for Walter.
