I was shredding some redundant paperwork the other day,when I came across my old scrapbook.It suddenly hit me ,having not realized it before,that all the roles I played had character defects of one sort or another.No " Mr Nice Guys " like Baron Von Trapp in " The sound of Music " or Jesus in " Superstar ".
Most of the major parts ranged from murderers, psychopaths,Nazis and gangsters, through gamblers, con-men and misogonists to layabouts,idiots,and narcissistic effeminates and Rock and Roll Stars.Type-casting ,maybe ?
Now if I were casting some of the bloggers,I would probably select the following.
Luv2Suc as Scarlett O'Hara in " Gone with the wind " ( Tomorrow is another day )
SunshineGirl as the luscious Jean in " Brigaoon" due to her very attractive Scottishmness)
Sassy as the independent and forthright Mrs. Levi in " Hello Dolly" ( she's got better legs than Barbra Streisand too ! )
Gillibean as Nellie Forbush in " South Pacific " ( I'm gonna wash that man right outa my hair ) or Debbie Reynolds in " Singing in the rain " ( I wouldn't mind spending a night on a sofa with her )
Miss Goodnight as Bronwen in " How green was my valley " because of her heavily-implied Celtic sexiness.
Ms.Geil would be free to pick any part that appealed in " La cage aux folles "
Sue from Sue and Chris ,as the Good Fairy in " Wizard of Oz" because she is unfailingly nice to everyone.
As for Ginger Red,resisting the urge that her Bottom would be a sensation in " Mid Summer Night's Dream" ,I know she has trodden the boards and may vouchsafe to us, her favorite role.
I daresay that most of the guys might fall into the categories I have been lumbered with,unless there is someone who is convinced ( or deluded ) that he is a squeaky clean hero or romantic lover,free from any defect.

You're right Gilli, costumes may be a cause for concern. I'm just trying to imagine squishing my boobs into a Scarlett type dress. |

Frisky, Come and spend a few hours round me, I'm constantly getting slapped across the face, with everything from a glove to a handbag. (Though usually I'm never challenged to a duel, just told to piss off)! img src="imagesadultemoticons026.gif" |

Why thank you Fetch. Although i would be rather more robust then virginia Bosler or any female who strutted the boards to play the part on stage.... "Oh Harry, take my hand for Lang Syne and wish me happiness" |

Fetch, can you have a word with wardrobe? It's not just the boobs I'm worried about. Flippin' heck, that dress is going to make my backside look even bigger than it already is. |

Yes Fetch i agree with Luv2 on the costume situation as NO WAY will my ample bosom be able to squeeze into Brigadoon style dresses without careful alterations.... |

My word Ladies ! You are showing yourselves as true professional Thespians, complaining about costumes and announcing that you are ready to play one of the great iconic roles. |

In refuting these innuendos about me and a Red Indian Brave at the YMCA,I should like to put the record straight. I visited a redskin encampment during one of their fertility festivals and shagged three squaws.The first two squaws lay on Buffalo hides believing that they had mystical powers.The third lay on a Hippopotamus hide,believing the same thing.The latter squaw later gave birth to Geronimo, the most powerful and charismatic of all the Apaches,thus proving the law of Pythagorus that " The son of the squaw on the Hippopotamus ,is equal to the sons of the squaws on the other two hides !
