Since she's starting to enjoy acting. I think she would be great.

I'm going to disagree for a number of reasons.

For one, Stevie's about 35 years too old to play Maria. She most certainly doesn't have a soprano range anymore. Even if she did, her voice wouldn't be any more suited for the part than Carrie's was as Stevie has no musical theatre training and a very, very distinct tone. I'll reserve judgement until after AHS airs, I suppose, but I've never been overly impressed by any of Stevie's bit-acting parts in the past, and based on that I'm not sure she could believably carry a lead role (by her own admission: she's not an actress, so I wouldn't expect her to be able to).

And perhaps most importantly: Maria doesn't wear platform boots.
