Fluther: The Musical. What role might you take?

Depends on the day. On a Friday I would have to say Hair. There are some people here who would just love to get naked and dance about on Fridays. Hair would also fit in terms of the themes explored in the musical, sexism, sex, religion, poverty, war etc. etc. Sounds perfect!

Other thoughts are Little Shop of Horrors given the love of zombies here.

Or maybe The Wiz and I can be a witch (typecasting perhaps?).

Can I be a tree again?

No seriously… I’d like to have a role that involves actual singing.

To have a platform where people would be willing to listen to my singing would be fantastic. So far, at home, I’m not allowed.

I would be the guy in the corner mumbling things nobody wants to hear.

Call me Harold Hill.

Well, I’d love to play the ingenue, but would probably be cast as one of the three witches.

I want to be the person that makes sure everyone is where they should be and on time.

Perhaps I’ll be the skin flutist on the roof of the 10K mansion. ;-)

Or, I could be a mask-wearing organ player in the basement of a house owned by an abdicated talk show queen- the Phantom of the Oprah!

I am the one that plants bombs under all the seats and detonates them at the climax.

@ragingloli

Good for you to make sure that people actually experience an intense climax.

Gonzo?

I want to be a bitchy cat.

I’ll sell tickets.

Me, for the dancing and singing chorus.

I love dancing and singing, so that’s where I’ll be.

I want to be the guy who pelvic thrusts in the background, and screams “Destructiooooooon!” :)

I’ll be tinyfaery.

“The Queen of the Night” with her arias transposed down several keys.

I believe we need a hybrid musical here, so I will direct “Les Miserable Hamlet Meets Rocky Horror and the Dancing Walendas!” It will feature heartrending solos interspersed with nekkid dancers that the audience can throw popcorn or pancakes at. The whole thing will climax with this

I’ll do whatever is needed, but only if I get to dress up like Xena.

Prop Master! I shall procure for you a wooden carp and a marzipan street lamp.

I could be the loveable dog who’s always bugging the bitchy cat.

OR

I could be Gabby so I can always get saved by the lovely Xena. Perhaps even Argo… so I can be ridden by Xena. :P

The horny bastard waving his “baton” indiscriminately.
I thought of Calamity Jake in honour of the Hawaiian thespian who prowls these pages.

@ucme That’s not a “baton.” That’s my fairy wand. POOF! You’re the frog. Now, go find a princess to kiss you.

@tinyfaery But I wanted to play you in the musical!

I would want to perform TacoBells Cannon on the tacquito and deep fried tortilla!

I’ll be the costume, makeup and prop designer and builder.

I would be singing This of course ; )

I’ll proofread the program. And the supertitles, if there are any.

Oh, and I’ll volunteer to check the lyrics to make sure nobody tries to rhyme “together” with “forever.”

The old grouch who has no singing parts, but waves off the singers looking like he’s constipated.

I guess I’ll be the music director…It’ll be a mash-up of styles, from opera, to big band, to rock, to country, to folk, to… to…to…African drumming!

This is going to be a great production! Anybody for sets, lights, publicity? And we need musicians. By the way, do we have a writer? A plot? An angel?

I’ll be the singing dominatrix, of course!

I believe Jake may have gotten the wrong end of the stick, my reference to Calamity Jake was in response to the secondary question given in the OP’s details…just played around with the title a bit.

A dancing elephant, of course. I have a relative in showbiz.

@augustlan we’ll make sure all your solos are in a dominant key!

I’ll host the party following opening night. Champagne, anyone?

I want to be the Ice Queen or white witch.

I think we would have some masked Phantoms, some cats from Cats, a few Greasers and Pink Ladies, the entire cast from Rocky Horror Picture Show with some willingly-costumed audience members, a few Les Misérables, but I want to be in Spamalot, at the end, singing ‘Always look on the bright side of life….’

I love ‘Always look on the bright side of life…’. I’m in @cazzie.

I think I’d make a right proper Eliza Doolittle I would.

@Blondesjon You sound like a complete Dick Van Dyke…cor blimey guvnor!

I’m thinking it should be a ghost ship musical. Auggie is is the Captain and if anyone displeases her they have to “walk the plank”. I would like to be a ghost because I’m not much of a drama queen. I want Rebbel to be the lookout in the crow’s nest. I want Symbeline to be the military strategist in case of attack and I want Thorninmud to be the cook! We need some musicians of course. Any volunteers?? Who wants to be a crocodile? And who wants to be a mermaid or merman? The chorus would be all jellyfish!!! We would have spectacular light effects and bioluminescence!

@Earthgirl Oh man…if somehow, all Fluther got together and rented a cruise ship, what you’re saying should totally happen.

@Symbeline yeah, then @rebbel could give the rebel yell!!
