Williams? No, I don't agree at all. Not enough of an actress, and I think too pretty of a sound. Mitchell - seems like he'd be wasted in the role somehow.

Back to Mame maybe? :-)

Maybe this will be controversial (you never know on here), but I would be interested in seeing an Idina Menzel-led SB. She has a very expressive face and her vocals can have an insistent urgency that would suit Norma.

She’s really only interested in developing original musicals, but a concert version would get my money.

Yes, Menzel would certainly be very interesting--and maybe even wonderful--as Norma. I'm no great fan of hers but she definitely would be much more suited to the role than Williams.
