Who do you consider to be born for the stage.. and let's limit it to acting... not just people who have a presence, or are dynamic to watch but aren't acting. Let's hear about the people who go up there and always inhabit their roles like a 2nd skin.

I'll start... Audra McDonald and Norbert Leo Butz.

Dolittle

Sorry (here is comes) I love Liza in film and in concert. Saw her in Chicago (unplanned), the Act and the Rink. On Broadway she was a B- at best


Kelli Ohara. Bernadette, Tony Roberts, Channing, Idina, Norbert Leo Butz, Audra, James Earl Jones, Jesse Mueller, Estelle Parsons, Judith Light, Nathan Lane, Bebe Newirth, Verdon, Fierstein in my mind were made for the stage

Audra, Norbert and Idina. Good picks.

Jessie Mueller, not Jesse.

Liza- No. She has the personality, but can struggle vocally a lot (not just now, but in the past).
