This would be a hilarious cast. I totally would want to see it done!

[RTTugger1977]

I've thought some of the parts out. Highlights would include Scooter taking an extremely long time getting Miss Piggy inside the plant puppet, and when she's pulled through, she can be audibly heard screaming "WATCH IT!!!!", Sam Eagle discovering his inner performer during the course of "Mushnik and Son" and extending the "Tevye moment" by about 20 minutes, and let's not forget the special gas mask (accomodated to fit Gonzo's head).

wheres kermit??

[RTTugger1977]

Kermit's directing the whole insane production, and he does have a walk-on as the first customer who wants to buy $50 worth of roses. (And he does break the fourth wall in doing so. After his first line, he says "I'm in this one too, folks, but only for a little bit.")

LMAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL!
All of that is brilliant, RTTugger1977

[Monsieur D'Arque]

Yes, I have always held that if you can, get celebrity cameos for the many Orin roles. I loved playing all these parts, but after hearing Al Roker (or was it Don Pardo) as the Announcer in this show, and seeing all the Second City TV stars do bit parts in the movie, I've always found this method intriguing. Not canon, but intriguing.

[RTTugger1977]

Oh yes, and I forgot the best part...after curtain call, the shop set splits in two to reveal the traditional Electric Mayhem set. Audrey II Pod 4 is then pushed to the back of the stage under a spotlight (with Sweetums still inside to lip-synch), and the Electric Mayhem take the stage to perform "Mean Green Mother From Outer Space".

I'd rather have Animal as Orin... hes crazy!

[RTTugger1977]

Animal may be crazy, but his problem is he can barely talk. Besides, with the score of LSoH, he's needed in the orchestra pit to keep bangin' those drums. I think Gonzo could handle the part quite well, plus we get to see the special gas mask with the Gonzo-shaped nose.

[bwayobsessed]

This idea makes me happy.

[RTTugger1977]

I'm glad it does make you happy, seems that some people are starting to think it's getting old right quick. Plus, I love the Kermit avatar.

Lessee, I've done "Little Shop of Horrors", "Annie", and "Rent"...still gotta do "Sweeney Todd", "Chicago", "Fiddler On The Roof" (although the cast changes CONSTANTLY with that one), "Oklahoma!"....I even did one for "Avenue Q", where the ensemble feels "really weird" performing the puppets.
