#75re: Best triple threat
Posted: 6/22/04 at 7:47pmYou know who I forgot? Harry Groener! The first time I saw him was as Ralph on the sitcom "Dear John" (I didn't know at the time he was in the original cast of CATS). When I found out that Bobby from CRAZY FOR YOU was HIM I was speechless! I shocked he hasn't starred in more musicals!

Posted: 6/22/04 at 8:20pmWhat is surprising me is the sheer number of respondents who have come up with Sutton Foster...perhaps we need a history of theater lesson on this board...and I realize I asked for a contemporary performer as well, but I don't think Sutton has done enough of a variety of work to be judged fairly.

Can't believe I didn't mention Debbie Reynolds, either!
And I agree with Rathnait62. We need a history lesson. We are forgetting many great performers from the past who were excellent triple threats

Sutton Foster is the most amazing newcomer to come along in a long time, and her dancing is wonderful! In "Nuttycracker", with all that's going on in that scene, all eyes are on Sutton. In the opening scene, she projects the magic that makes us all love musical theatre so much.
After having seen the final performance of Thoroughly Modern Millie, I was very much impressed with Jessica Grove as Miss Dorothy. Even though she only played this role the last few weeks after being an understudy for some time, she has an impressive resume including Dorothy in Wizard of Oz at MSG, and as Eponine in Les Mis, (sound familiar?). I just think she deserves a mention on this thread as an up and coming Triple.
