Shenny HQ

Fellow Shennys and Broadway fans(such as myself, etc...), would u have loved(and or wanted)to see more of Penny's portrayal of Mimi Marquez in her one-night Rent showcase? I know I would
Hypothetically speaking, what other Broadway productions could u see our favorite Cornhusker starring in? A low-rent production of Annie perhaps? lol.......
What Broadway shows could u see Penny starring in?

I can see Penny in Annie get your gun.

Oh, I definitely would've loved to see her Mimi portrayal. They could've shown the video footage of her performance as a tag scene. Her "Aaaaaaaaa~oooooot toniiiight~" wasn't really that bad. At least she was in-tune. Haha.

I could've used more scenes like that "A Streetcar Named Desire" play they did. They should've done more of that in the earlier seasons if Penny had been attending acting classes since then. Even short scenes depicting her while doing workshop would've worked.

Out of curiosity, I'd like to see Penny as Fantine in a low-budget production Les Mis. Granted, her version of "I Dreamed A Dream" wouldn't be that stellar, vocal-wise, but that song demands a lot of acting and she might just nail it.

The other (very few) Broadway productions I'm familiar with involve a lot of singing so, I'm all out.

I could so see Bernadette playing Cosette in that low-budget Les Mis production...lol

I bet she'd do well in a role where she is running around chasing a perp or running from evil robot/cyborg things ()

(I hope I'm not derailing this thread, my knowledge of broadway is minimal at best )

Which musical would you love to see Penny star in?

I would say musical theater probably wouldn't be Penny's strong suit but if she did do something I think a more comic role- something that doesn't require a "pretty" voice would be good. Ado Annie from Oklahoma, or Miss Adelaide from Guys and Dolls, parts that require comic acting as much as singing maybe. I don't really see her as an ingenue type( I think those characters are pretty boring anyway).

I chose Annie because Annie get your gun and Oklahoma were not available....

Miz Hannigan.

I have merged two threads together because they had the same topic.
