I don't know that this is really a bucket list, per se, because some of them are total fantasy but these are the roles I'd love to play. These are not in any order and they are not all musicals/operas - I want to play them ALL!
- Fantine, Les Miserables
- Tosca, Tosca
- Liu, Turandot
- Elphaba, Wicked
- Lucy, Jekyll & Hyde
- Lucia, Lucia di Lammermore (hahaha - the music would kick my butt but what a fun part to play)
- Donna Elvira, Don Giovanni (I was 19 when I played her before; how much heartache had I really experienced? NONE)
- The Countess, Marriage of Figaro
- Cio-Cio-San (Butterfly), Madame Butterfly
- Lily Craven, Secret Garden
- Narrator, Joseph & the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat
- Mary Poppins, Mary Poppins
- Donna OR Tanya, Mamma Mia!
- Mimi, La boheme
- Lady Macbeth, Macbeth
- M'Lynn, Steel Magnolias
- Vivi, Divine Secrets of the Ya-Ya Sisterhood (younger Vivi)
- Grizabella, Cats
- Roxie Hart, Chicago
Oh, I'm sure there are more but this is a good list. *giggle*
Grizabella?! Why???
ReplyDeleteI would give my left kidney to play Cosette and Galinda.
HAHAHA - because I'm getting older and I can look back and remember when I was a sparkly 20-something. I LOVE how sad she is and how she gets that new life at the end. I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Memory.
ReplyDeleteSee, when I was younger, I would have LOVED to play Eponine (never was interested in Cosette) and I'm much too "green" for chipper little Galinda. *giggle*
