Not Broadway, but Julia Roberts graduated from a school very near me. Also, I think someone in the national tour of Cats at one time graduated from my school.

And the other thing about the Phantom Lady was, Bert, she realized, in the city that never sleeps... What did she realize, Kitten? That all the songs she'd listened to, all the love songs, that they were only songs. What's wrong with that? Nothing, if you don't believe in them. But she did, you see. She believed in enchanted evenings, and she believed that a small cloud passed overhead and cried down on a flower bed, and she even believed there was breakfast to be had... Where? On Pluto. The mysterious, icy wastes of Pluto.

not broadway but the creator of grand theft auto and the persident of american express went to my school. Now my school is one of many throughout the world and fellow alumns from those schools include christopher walkin, julianna marguiles and Jennifer Aniston. I think there are many more but my mind is drawing a blank.

"At the opening night party, they had clowns on stilts, jugglers, a chocolate fountain, popcorn, hot dogs. [My son] looked at me like I had been holding back. Like, 'This is what you do?' I had to tell him, 'No, no, darling. Opening nights don't usually look like this.' It's usually a dark bar with a bottle of vodka." ?Chitty Chitty Bang Bang's Jan Maxwell plus i proudly share the title of the shortest member over the age of 10 with wickedrentq!

I'm sure she wishes she had a show on Broadway, but Kathy Lee Gifford was a year ahead of me in high school. We knew her as Kathy Epstein.

One of my sister's friends was in the ensemble of the How to Succeed revival (Rebecca Holt). I did a community theater show with her once too (Peter Pan. I was a lost boy and she was Wendy). From that same production our Tiger Lily was Eponine in the national tour for a while...but then again, who HASN'T been in the national tour of Les Miz at one time or another?

Dule Hill went to my alma mater. Not sure if he graduated from there or not.

Greg Evigan and Jon Bongiovi (as it was spelled back then) also went there.

Phillip Seymor Hoffman went to the same high school as I did. Graduated in 84 or 85 I believe. And yes I was also a student of the Midge Marshall.

Paige O'Hara (Voice of Belle) was in the first graduating class of my performing Arts High School.

Thalia DaCosta (Ex-MTV VJ) was two classes behind me.

Elias Soriano (lead singer of NonPoint - for all you Floridians into Alternative) was in my graduating class.

Jessica Aquino (Bridesmaid in Tony N Tina's Wedding) was also in my gard class - one of my best friends from high school.

Also, in a short lived TV show High School musical, the woman playing the teacher (Who also played a ballerina on Murder, She Wrote) graduated from my high school. However, both the name and show escaped my memory.

"Do you know what pledge time is, Andrew"? said the PBS Executive. "Yes", Lloyd Webber replied. "My 50th birthday special must be one program that gets done a lot." "No", mused the man from PBS heedlessy. "Not so much. Our Stephen Sondheim Carnegie Hall concert. That's a big one." Spoons, forks and knives seemed suddenly to suspend their motion in horror, all around the table.

Um.... I think there's a few more then this but the ones that come to mind are Josh Groban, Jenna Elfman and I've heard Angelina Jolie but I'm not sure if that one was true or not. Plus a bunch of other people who have probably done small TV,film or stage bits here and there. I go to an arts high school that specializes in the performing arts so alot of the grads probably ended up on/close to Broadway at some point...
