Did you ever see something and say, "I just have to have it"?
Sometimes a dream appears unattainable...but for anyone who's on the downside of advantage, and relying purely on courage, it's possible.

Posted: 2/14/05 at 6:21pmI've said it before. Alan Cumming. I've been wanting to meet him for years. Other than that, it was Raúl Esparza but I finally met him after waiting a looooong time.

All the Q gang (including Messrs. Marx & Lopez), but first, foremost, and most especially, Rick Lyon. 
(Yeah, I know, I know, I'm the only one who's that way about him. ~~sigh~~)
Agreed that David Hyde Pierce would be fun to meet, too.

Frances Ruffelle and Max Von Essen. The most famous Broadway person I've met thus far is Micheal Crawford, and it wasn't all that exciting.

6. "Pass the parcel. That's sometimes all you can do. Take it, feel it and pass it on. Not for me, not for you, but for someone, somewhere, one day. Pass it on, boys. That's the game I want you to learn. Pass it on." -The History Boys

I've met Julie Andrews twice and Cheno once.
I would like to meet Banderas.
I've met BD Wong once. I would like to spend at least a day with him (if he wont agree to the rest of our lives.)

BD Wong and his partner split?? When?!

Mr. Wong gave me the feeling I was in the presence of an angel when we met after a performance of Pacific Overtures.
He was totally kind. He signed my program and took a pic with me and my group. He and I were right next to each other - in each others arm. Touching!!!!!
