Unfortunately, Howard is not available for the part. It seems he's been dead for four years. And if there is going to be "big trouble in River City, it will have to wait until we do "The Music Man" next spring.
...........Can Dexter sing?

ACTUALLY, as music director, the question that needs to be addressed is wether we will follow the old fashion of these movies to dub in the voices...because, if we're NOT, then as DIRECTOR, you will have to RECAST with actors and actresses that can SING......

So Niki, if we cast Dexter as Curly that would mean Mary will be holding him and staring into his eyes as they sing to each other "People Will Say We're IN Love"......what do you think?

I am already starting to rewrite some of the songs
For Music Man ...
There’s trouble .. right here in LDL City .. With a Capital T that rhymes with B that stands for BEANS !! .. (because many of us make our own music when we eat beans)
For the Sound of Music there is ..
