I know, I know, I started 667 Fiddler on the Roof and never finished. It didn't quite work out. However, I fully intend to complete 667 Wizard of Oz, I swear. I probably won't write the music that goes along with it because I don't have the patience/talent, but I don't think it will make much of a difference.
In hopes to please the lesser-known members of 667, I am leaving this open for any members to opt for their place in the story. If you would like to be in this, please post what character you would like to be, and a little bit about yourself. I will try to include as many people as possible.
There is a funny story about how I got the idea for this, but my time is up, so I will post it along with the character list tomorrow. Please post if you would like to be included in this.

Is it possible for me to be in this?
I remember when I was younger I dressed up as the Tin-Man for some sort of book week thing. I would like to be in your story.
Is it possible for me to be the Wizard? Probably not, but I thought I'd ask anyway.

I wouldn't mind being in this, it sounds really interesting. So are you not completing Fiddler sometime later? Maybe? it rocked.
I don't mind being any of the female characters, I like them all, Dorothy, Wicked Witch, Glinda. I think I've read Wicked one too many times. Myself? Probably most like Dorothy. I live in Kansas, and I would glady conjure up singing little people and a woman in bright pink to escape the boredom. I have a dog that fits in a basket and I don't sound very much like Dorothy but I love Judy Garlands voice. Anything else you'd like to know? I'd really enjoy being in this.

J: Can I be Toto? C: I'd be a better Toto. J: You're too big; Toto was a cairn terrier, not a coyote. C: ... J: I'll be a brick, then! I don't care; anything as long as i'm in it--just not one of those midget people. I hate them. C: What about a flying monkey? J: TOTALLY.

I think you can say you want that role also and she'll pick someone. Or maybe not. I don't know. Glinda is cool though, she has a scepter.

No idea who I would be. Perhaps one of the characters that needs something from the wizard. Like, I'm too lazy, or something, and need some confidence. Or flying monkey is fine, too.

Oooh. I'll be the Wicked Witch of the East.
Heh. *too much Wicked for Stupid Laura* Nessa!
I'm a rather strange young lady who's in love with various things that cannot return my love. I'm also intrinsically attracted to things that sparkle.
Sparkly sparkly.
...Carry on. *retreats back into cave*

Darn, I wanted to be Glinda (I like her name a lot, it has Linda in it). I guess I'll pick someone else. How about...actually, I can't think of anyone else I want to be. Except maybe Toto or something. Glinda's still better though.

Darn, I wanted to ask for Glinda... her actress has the same name as my dad, so it's, like, fate. Or maybe not. *shrugs*
Hm... flying monkey would be neat. Or I'll be one of the extras at the Emerald City. Or some other small role like that.

It sounds good-the Wizard of Oz is great! (: I look forward to it.

Out of curiosity, will this be based more on the movie or the book? I'm guessing movie, because you mention songs in it, but I want to make sure.

Could I be the lion, Orangey?
I'm very headstrong and tend to be a bit...rude occasionally. Add in a dash of supidity, and the urge to sing jazz songs randomly and look for art everywhere, and I think you'll have enough information about me to portray me well.

Celinra, it will be based more on the movie, because I've only read the book once (and it was the summer before I went into first or second grade). I wouldn't mind being in this, it sounds really interesting. So are you not completing Fiddler sometime later? Maybe? it rocked. I thought it kind of went completely downhill, actually. Perhaps I will attempt to finish it, if I don't get in trouble for reviving the thread. I hope nobody is angry with the choices for the cast, seeing that many of you want the same roles. Anyway, here goes (the renamings are combinations of usernames and character names): Dorothy: Pandora, even though I got the idea for this because of J. I was acting out the part of the Wicked Witch to my brother--- "I'll get you, my pretty, and your little dog, too!"--- and he said that he didn't have a dog. I changed it to daemon instead. This character is renamed Panothy. Scarecrow: Dupin. Renamed: Dupecrow Tin Man: PJ. Renamed: Peej Man. Lion: Le Grey. Renamed: Le Lion. Toto: J. Although I'd really love to make J. a munchkin, just because I can. Renamed: To J. (pronounced Toe J.). Wizard: BabyDaddy. Renamed: Baby Wizard. Glinda: Linda. She won't be renamed, since the name is pretty close already. Auntie Em: Carma. Renamed: Auntie Carma, of course. Wicked Witch of the East: Azelma. Renamed: Wicked Witch of Azel. Miss Gulch/Wicked Witch of the West: Celinra. Renamed: Miss Cel/Wicked Witch of Inra. Doorman: Jemima. Renamed: Doormima. These names are extremely amusing to make. Characters we still need: -Uncle Henry -Munckins (including the Herald, the Mayor, the Judge, the Councilman, the Coroner, the Lullaby League, and the Lollipop Guild) -Grumpy Apple Trees (2) -Doorman -Emerald City beauticians -Emerald City citizens -Tourists Guide -Guard -Flying Monkeys -Winkie Guards If nobody offers to have these roles in twenty-four hours, I will assign anyone to them. Please, speak now if you wish to be included. I will most likely post the first chapter tomorrow. Note: In order to make it more interesting, I will be writing it in story form rather than as a play.

I would like to be in this. I will take any of these parts:
-Doorman -Emerald City citizens -Winkie guards
I mainly want the Doorman. When you make my name, use Jemima, please.
