This is an old idea but lets see who we come up with. If you were to have a dinner party for six (inclusive of yourself) and could invite Broadway actors (living or dead), who would you invite?

Off the top of my head I'd invite Tallulah Bankhead,Noel Coward, Paul Lynde, Ethel Merman and Maggie Smith. It would be loud but so funny.

I'd pay to bus the tables at your party, alterego.

Do they have to be just actors?

I'd want LuPone, Marc Shaiman (I think they would come as a pair), Betty Buckley, Stanley Tucci and Bette Midler. Stanley would cook in a home version of The Naked Chef.

For my waiters, they would be Gavin Creel, Joe Machota, and Barrett Foa. The three good fairies! Clothing would be optional....WOAH! Who said that? hehe

The official guest party list would be: Sherie Rene Scott, Jason Robert Brown, Georgia Stitt, Bill Finn, Jonathan Larson, Norbert Leo Butz.

For entertainment, Lauren Kennedy, Rebecca Luker, and Carolee Carmello would sing some Andrew Lippa songs.

I once saw a cookbook with favorite recipes from Broadway stars. perhaps we could use the recipes from that. Any of these legends cook? I like the idea of the waiters and entertainment. I don't know about optional clothing for these waiters, I'm not sure I want their bits in my face while I try to eat my french onion soup.

Findingnamo I'll let you bus the tables for free.
