Wouldn't It Be Loverly? Patrick Stewart Reveals His Musical Dream Role

On Broadway, Patrick Stewart has tackled Shakespeare, Arthur Miller, Harold Pinter, Charles Dickens and now David Mamet, with his acclaimed performance in the current revival of A Life in the Theatre. So what’s left on the list? A musical!

When interviewed with Broadway.com reader questions for his upcoming Ask a Star video, Stewart was asked if he’d ever consider doing a musical.

“Yes!” he responded, without pause. OK, which role? “I’ve always wanted to play Henry Higgins in My Fair Lady.”

Works for us. Broadway producers, get cracking!

For now, enjoy this campy bit of singing below from Stewart, live from the set of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
