More on "Iceman"

I have been thinking a lot about "The Iceman Cometh" since I posted two days ago, specifically about who would make up the ideal cast.  I keep coming back to Edward Norton who I thought of as I watched the current production.  He would be an ideal Hickey.  10 or 15 years ago he would have been perfect for Parritt but he's aged and grown as an actor.  I could see Mandy Patinkin as Larry. I'm not kidding. Rupert Friend as Parritt?  And I can come up with a whole passel of fine young actresses to the play the "tarts" among them Betty Gilpin, Heidi Schreck and Hallie Pfeiffer.  More to come...
