Well, I may have to return to NYC to see that Broadway show as well. Saw Equus and it was great.

OMG thats so cool

He's a horrible singer..if anyone has doubts watch his scene in december boys or hear him sing happy birthday to Jo at the HP five premier...if he takes this role he'll need extensive training. Won't be something easy at all but he's a hardworking guy!!!

Didn't we learn any thing from Dan's time in Equus? When it was first announced that he was taking the role of Strang, i'm sure i wasn't the only doubting thomas. Not because i didn't think Dan wasn't a good actor, but because the disicplines of the stage is so much different to that of film. I was proven wrong, as was a great many people. What it showed us was that Dan prepared and prepared hard. He didn't just turn up for the 'gig', thinking his role of Harry would carry him through. Dan has been having singing lessons for over 12 months now, and should this part take off, i'm convinced Dan will continue to put in the work to make sure he can give it his all. I' m sure Dan won't sound like Domingo, or Sinartra, but, think of the likes of Leonard Cohen, Bob Dylan or even Rex Harrison in 'My Fair Lady'. Voices don't have to be beautiful, but tuneful, in time and inteprative.

No. She began her broadway career in I CAN GET IT FOR YOU AT WHOLESALE. Matthew Broderick won a TONY for his performance in the revival.

He should SO do this! Then, maybe I could go see him in NYC and hear his American accent. :P

interesting

voice not as important as acting
 
Robert Morse, the actor who first starred in How to Succeed did not need an amazing voice for the role. He sings well enough - check out clips on Youtube, but watch the amusing facial expressions, and acting which is hilarious at times. We've heard about and seen Dan's high energy and it would definitely add to the performance.

What I think will be interesting is seeing Dan portray an American in a very culturally American play. I suppose they could change the premise, that he uses the book to get ahead specifically because he is a foreigner.

Equus never came to Australia, sooooooooo Dan doing a musical will probably result the same. It (and Dan staring in it) won't come either (chances are lowww) so I won't get to see it.:(

sounds interesting
good luck to him
