Sutton and Hunter Foster, Erin Dilly, Kristen Bell, Gregory Jbara, Celia Keenen-Bolger,Enrico Rodriguez, Marin Mazzie went to school on the other side of my state and not to mention the countless people who came from U of M.

Not Broadway but Tim Allen, Jeff Daniels, and Robin Williams(who kinda of counts for b-way).

And a few of my friends who have some national tours but haven't hit the boards quite yetanny McNie and Jason Beaubien

Alec Baldwin....hence our highschool auditorium's name "Baldwin Auditorium."

Idina Menzel is from nearby. So is Adam Pascal, but that's not nearly as exciting.

John Tartaglia grew up in Ambler, I think, and that's about a 20 minute drive from my house.

Wayne Cilento lives in my town and his neighbor was in my health class so i got his autograph on a little WICKED card. It is quite cool. It is the picture of the playbill with the production info on the other side. Maybe you have seen it

Apparently Norbery lives in the town that borders mine... I have no idea, if it's true, but someone said they know him from church, and how many Norbert Butzs are there?

Well, I'm glad he got away with it.
