Favorite "Gay" role in a Broadway show...

In honor of Pride, I thought it would be appropriate to have a thread honoring those great "Gay" characters.

OK, who wants to start? This should be fun!

-Mark (Altar Boyz)
-Albin (La Cage aux Folles)
-Molina (Kiss of the Spider Woman)

I adore Christian Borle and Hank Azaria, so I feel I should add Herb and Lance- as my mother affectionately calls them- from Spamalot. Oh, and Roger & Carmen (The Producers) will always have a special place in my heart.


These sorts of threads aren't good for indecisive people, such as myself...

Prior Walter.

Marvin from "Falsettos" and Roger DeBris come in a close second and third though.

[Kringas]

I second Prior Walter.

This is off-Broadway, but I suppose it doesn't matter.

Molina from KISS OF THE SPIDER WOMAN gets my vote for #1

[JohnPopa]

Posted: 6/25/05 at 7:30pm

Molina from 'Spider Woman' is, I think, the most moving character (of any sort) in the entire musical theater canon.

Well she is the head of the Gay-Straight Alliance but we never know if she is gay but....Logainne Schwarzandgrubeniere (sp?) from Spelling Bee. I also love Roger DeBris

Prior Walter, definitely with Belize and "Mr. Charles, formerly of Palm Beach" (Paul Rudnick) as runners-up.
