I felt so bad for Leo in "parade" right before he was hung, pleading one last time that he was innocent, but this was obviously part of Gods plan for him.

Trvor Gradon in Millie, the guy was a hottie, and he ended up with no one in the end.

Kinda made me sad.

no one reads these things by the time I get to them, but that is my two bits.

Rod in Avenue Q. Come on, when he says, "Good night, Nicky" it breaks my heart everytime.

Ummmmm how about almost every character in Les Miserables. Especially Eponine, Fantine and Javert.

I only have 1 main character that I've felt unbelievably sorry for.

Peter in "Bare: A Pop Opera"
His struggle is so heart wrenching. Seriously, Michael Arden's performance in this role tore my heart into a million pieces. Peter also has this strength at the end to go forth after all that has happened. I cried during this show; the first time during a musical. There was a sense of admiration for the will to go on, and this amazing sympathy felt for him.

Jeez, I wanted to hug the whole cast of "Bare," each character has this turmoil that you just want to go away so they can be happy.

Also, I wanted to hug Rod in "Avenue Q" just because he's so darn adorable, and because the emotion when he had to deal with coming out was so strong.

I would have to say Jud Fry.
All he wants is "a woman to call his own"

The Beast in 'Beauty and the Beast'... I know he's a monster at the begging but it's really not his fault as they say in the show he was raised to be a brat... but the part that always gets me is when he rips Belle's sleeve and then she says 'Promise or no promise I can't stay her I can't stay.." and he’s stands they saying "no. I didn't...” oh, I want to cry every time!

Audrey

Mr. Mushnik... at least in the production that just closed.. He was kind of just a guy in the wrong place at the wrong time... I mean if you thought some you know killed someone you would have questions to.

Boq ~ Wicked

Dennis in 'All Shook Up' he’s the same kind of dorky character as Boq who has a crush on his best friend but helps kind of helps her get the man she wants rather then him..

and yea I agree with Jud.. I just finished a production of Oklahoma and of course when in the show you have to despise Jed but I use to sit back stage with other cast members and be like wow ya really gotta feel sorry for that guy he just wants the gal he loves..

The entire cast of Bare needs to be hugged...

Jonathan and David in King David. "How Are The Mighty Fallen" breaks my heart a little more every time I listen to it.
