I have seen it on Broadway way back when. The roles are kids in their late teens/twenties who are likely to be drafted into the army to be sent off Viet Nam. Unfortunately, Adam would be old for this. But I guess Troye Sivan would be of the right age.

Hopefully we'll have a new album and talk of a tour next spring.

None of these shows seemed to have helped elevate the status of anyone that I can see. Really don't want to go thru that JCSS craziness again, lol. And I don't think any of them got much traction out of being is that production. Hope there are other good things on the horizon for Adam besides album and QAL of course. The media sure like to write about him.

Remember Adam talking about the nude scene in Hair? Yeah, wonder how they will do that on national prime time TV.

hm...I don't think that role is quite late teen/twenty, and can you imagine main stream America getting to hear this? In the end, most don't know that Adam sang this or have ever heard this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=6v1IsOQhEH4. I do believe that things would seriously explode, especially if he would wear elegant clothing, like he did when he performed it in Europe, rather than just frumpy stage garb playing an old lady, like many directors make others do for this role. Whether Adam wants to do it, I don't know, but I surely believe it would get a lot of attention, if he did it. And for TV, there will be no usual nude scene, I doubt that needs to be a problem. Now, whether Adam has any interest, that is a different matter.

Thanks, Bamafan. That's a lot for a magazine, but.....it is Adam. LOL half the magazines I buy here in OZ are that or more. Go for it.

Now, whether Adam has any interest, that is a different matter. Adam did an amazing job with My Conviction. His vocal control was amazing and he just embodied that crazy woman character perfectly. I've seen Hair onstage about four times. I don't think Adam is out of the age range to play some role in it. Not necessarily the My Conviction role. Personally, I don't think he'd want to do that one again.

totally agree with you girldrummer. Adam could play one of the other characters too, if so wanted, and given that vocally, no particular role is particularly calling his name, I doubt that he is seeking that out, but Adam looks so young, and has such flexibility in his vocal sound that he is capable of doing a lot of stuff. That does not mean that he wants to, or that he should. The fantastic thing about him tackling the specific role of Margarete Mead, is that a) that is indeed a role that not everyone can sing and do well, and b) that Adam gave it some additional dimension that I had not previously seen in this role. He made it more, and he made it more valuable. I have since seen a few people picking up on what he has done, and continue in the lane that he has defined, but Adam owns the original performance of making this role so much more than just the usual caricature. Pioneer again. But yes, I was not trying to say, that he could not do the other parts, but rather was I responding to the earlier posts that were immediately putting the brakes on any participation of Adam is such a TV show. It may be a rather hypothetical discussion anyways, no matter which role. I hope that Adam is busy with his own music next year instead.
