Actors/Actresses we would like to see return to broadway

Yes on Julie Andrews, Susan Egan, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Jeremy Jordan, Brian Stokes Mitchell, Laura Bell Bundy, and Lea Michele.


Also, Rachel York, Julia Murney, Aaron Lazar, Sutton Foster, Tam Mutu, Lindsay Mendez (in a musical), Marc Kudisch (in a musical), Sara Ramirez, Lauren Worsham, Shoshana Bean, Steven Pasquale


Happily many actors I love are already on Broadway at the moment or coming soon (Lea Salonga, Laura Benanti, Jane Krakowski, Gavin Creel, etc.)

Sara Hyland, she did "Grey Gardens" (young Jackie Bouvier) on BW and was in the recent Hollywood bowl production of "Hair".

The first person that came to mind was Michael Stuhlbarg. I also hope Bradley Cooper comes back sooner rather than later.

I know Sherie Rene Scott is currently in a play but I feel like it's been forever since she did a musical and I miss hearing her sing.

After her stint as Sally in "Cararet" wouldn't mind Emma Stone taking another shot at a stage role.

He was fantastic in the Lieutenant of Inishmore at the Mark Taper Forum a few years ago. I imagine we'll see him on Broadway in the next few years.

Yes, to whoever suggested Beth Leavel. Such a funny broad - we need more of them on stage.

A couple of random ones off the top of my head:

Melanie Marshall - British singer/actress who played Fela Kuti's mother in the Fela! world tour, on the West End and then in the Broadway return engagement. She has a voice like a moonbeam - would love to hear her incredible voice again on a Broadway stage.

Charlotte d'Amboise - though I struggle to think of a role that will properly showcase her triple threat talents and her wonderful comedic sensibilities at this stage in her career.

Patricia Routledge (Best Actress In A Musical, 1968*) - okay, so she's 86, but that never stopped Dame Angela. I'd love to see her on a stage, any stage!

*Tied with Leslie Uggams, fact fans.

Old news, but I just found out that Matt Cavenaugh graduated from Columbia's Business School in 2014. So I guess he won't be coming back...?

Karen Olivo!! Her reprise as Vanessa in a Ham4Ham pre-show was, as usual, flawless.
Alice Ripley- isn't she doing a lot of solo/band stuff right now?

And I think Allison Case's Matilda gig came just in time, I was really missing her

"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.” ~ Muhammad Ali

Julie Andrews. Yes, you heard me. Julie. She'd be wonderful in a revival of A Little Night Music as the mother of Desiree and I bet she can handle "Liasons" just as well Gingold and Landsbury did!
