Been musing on this one for a while, so who would you like to see on stage (non-actor) and it would be awesome if you can place the person in a play/musical.
For myself, if you watch Pointless on the BBC, I would love to see Alexander Armstrong as Olivia and Richard Osman as Malvolio at the Globe in Twelfth Night. |

Thanks
Didn’t know that Alexander is an actor, (I haven’t been on Wikipedia), I know he is a marvellous singer(not envious) and does occasional concerts.
By non-actors, I mean anyone who primary job isn’t acting, Tim Minchin would be a great example, Romesh Ragananathan another, maybe a pop star?
As I said Alexander Armstrong as Olivia and Richard Osman as Malvolio, I am now duty bound to give a bow to the other side, that being the Chase. I definitely would love to see Bradley Walsh do a Shakespeares’ role, but cannot think what? Maybe Antony in Julius Caesar?

Jason Manford and Ore Oduba in a dusty old unknown musical would be a runaway hit,not that it’s ever going to happen...

I remember about 15 years ago (perhaps more), Alexander Armstrong did a Somerset Maugham in the WE with Victoria Hamilton.Though I can't now remember anything about it

Tim Minchin was in the dreadul Superstar arena tour. He screamed a lot and his face on the huge video screens made him look like a pug dog.
Before that he has acted loads in various roles on telly and had the title role in Amadeus
