"Take you me for a sponge, my lord?"

Jacob and I had a vision this morning. We want to produce "Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead." And we want to cast the cast of House MD.

I'll let you think about that awesomeness for a minute.

Okay, now that you've let that percolate for a little bit, here are the specifics.

Guildenstern:

Hugh Laurie

Rosencrantz:

Robert Sean Leonard

Hamlet: 

Jesse Spencer

Ophelia: 

Jennifer Morrison

Gertrude:

 Lisa Edelstein

Claudius:

 Michael Weston
(doesn't he look dodgy?)

Polonius: 

Peter Jacobson

Player:

Omar Epps

Tragedians:

Olivia Wilde, Kal Penn, Anne Dudek

We don't know if we have enough tragedians, and we don't know which of them will play Alfred. But we kind of don't care. 

Now we're just really sad that this probably won't actually happen. Who knows, though? Anyone have the contact info for the casting folks for House?
