I couldn't find the old thread, so I thought I might as well start a new one:
Ugly Betty Betty- Megan Hilty Connor- Richard H. Blake Wilhemmina- Patti LuPone (Come on, the ULTIMATE Diva) Mark- Cheyenne Jackson Amanda- Kerry Butler
30 Rock Liz- Stephanie J. Block Jack- Hank Azaria Tracy- Chester Gregory Jenna- Sutton Foster (Though I'd love to see Kristin Chenoweth do this role) Kenneth- Barret Foa
Feb. 28 - Looped, Feb. 28 - Next to Normal, March 4 - Hair, March 11 - A Little Night Music, March 24 - Time Stands Still, April 6 - La Cage Aux Folles, April 10 - Anyone Can Whistle (City Center), April 10 - Looped, May 9 - Enron, May 15 - A Little Night Music, May 15 - A Behanding In Spokane, May 30 - A Behanding In Spokane, May 30 - A Little Night Music, June 20 - A Little Night Music, June 23 - Red, June 23 - Sondheim on Sondheim, July 13 - A Little Night Music, July 18 - The Grand Manner (Lincoln Center)
I stand by my DCOM version of The Black Donnellys starring all four of the Jonas brothers. It does TOO work! Only change it so Frankie is Seany and Joe is Jimmy, then we'll have Taylor Swift being all dramatical as Joanie the crackwhore.
Raul Esparza as Jack Idina Menzel as Kate Adam Pascal as Sawyer Kelli O"Hara as Juliet Alan Cumming as Ben Brian Stokes Mitchell as Sayid Nathan Lane as Hurley Michael Cerveris as Locke Lea Salonga as Sun Daniel Dae Kim as Jin
Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip: Matt Albie: Norbert Leo Butz Danny Tripp: Malcolm Gets Harriet Hayes: Annaleigh Ashford Jordan McDeere: Simon Stiles: Chester Gregory II Tom Jeter: Wayne Wilcox Jack Rudolph: Don Stephenson Cal Shanley: Jeffry Denman
Scrubs: John Dorian: Barrett Foa Christopher Turk: Daniel Breaker Perry Cox: John C. McGinley (who else?) Carla Espinoza: Karen Olivo Bob Kelso: John McMartin Janitor: Andy Karl
30 Rock I love this show and think it would make a supreme musical.
Liz Lemon- Laura Benanti Jack Donaghy- Nathan Lane Tracy Jordan- Tracy Morgan Jenna Maroney- Erin Davie Kenneth Parcell- Barret Foa And of course in my musical of 30 Rock, we'd have... Colleen Donaghy- Elaine Stritch
The OC Not a particular favorite, but I think it'd make a musical. Go ahead, shoot. And remember, Mary Martin was nearly 50 when she played the 18 year old Maria von Trapp.
Kirsten Cohen- Christine Ebersole Sandy Cohen- Peter Gallagher Julie Cooper- Patti LuPone Jimmy Cooper- David Hyde Pierce As for the kids, let's get some fresh faces.
Meredith Grey- Laura Benanti/Stephanie J. Block Derek Shepherd- J. Robert Spencer Izzy Stevens- Megan Hilty Alex Karev- Cheyenne Jackson George O'Malley- Chris Fitzgerald Cristina Yang- Pearl Sun Miranda Bailey- Tonya Pinkins Richard Webber- Norm Lewis Callie Torres- Karen Olivo/Sara Ramirez Addison- Idina Menzel Lexie Grey- Sutton Foster/Eden Espinosa Preston Burke- Taye Diggs Mark Sloan- Brent Barrett
I don't think 30 Rock would be the same without the original cast. I think they should do a musical episode. I think it's funny that the OP chose two shows that have Broadway actors in them and chose not to have them reprise their roles. Cmon, Vanessa Williams not playing Willi?
You're reminding me of people you hear at the movies asking questions every ten seconds, "Who is that? Why is that guy walking down the street? Who's that lady coming up to him? Uh-oh, why did that car go by? Why is it so dark in this theater?" - FindingNamo on strummergirl
"If artists were machines, then I'm just a different kind of machine...I'd probably be a toaster. Actually, I'd be a toaster oven because they're more versatile. And I like making grilled cheese" -Regina Spektor
"That's, like, twelve shows! ...Or seven." -Crazy SA Fangirl
"They say that just being relaxed is the most important thing [in acting]. I take that to another level, I think kinda like yawning and...like being partially asleep onstage is also good, but whatever." - Sherie Rene Scott
For starters, PUSHING DAISIES could cast Kristen Chenoweth in the Kristen Chenoweth role, and Ellen Greene in the Ellen Greene role.

Michael: Richard H. Blake Lindsay: Erin Dilly Gob: Christian Hoff Buster: Stanley Bahorek George Sr.: Mark Jacoby Lucille: Christine Baranski Tobias: Danny Burstein George Michael: Gerard Canonico Maeby: Jennifer Damiano Lucille 2: Liza Minnelli
I want full musical numbers of "Hot Cops" and "It Ain't Easy Being White," as well as one of Gob's magic shows and a full-size stage replica of the banana stand. That is all.
