What I haven't seen in person/only heard on cast recordings/DVDs:
-Patti LuPone in Gypsy
-The entire of cast of Sunday In the Park With George (1994 recording)
-Patti LuPone in Anything Goes. For some reason I'm obsessed with her voice the most out of all the other cast recordings I have of the show.
-Loved Katie Finnerans performance in Company (2011). I could of just watched her and Patti LuPone the entire time.
-Donna Murphy in Passion (love this cast recording)
-I LOVE Madeline Kahn in On the Twentieth Century and she is one of those people where you can physically feel her emotions and facial expressions by listening to them on an album. I feel the same for Cheno, so I'm still on my toes waiting for this revival!
What I've seen in person:
-Interestingly enough the first person that came to my head was Megan Anderson who played Meg in a recent regional production of Crimes of the Heart at the Everyman Theatre (MD).
-Kelli O'Hara in The Bridges of Madison County. She's the only person that I've ever froze up on/started shaking when meeting her at the stage door because I was in complete and utter awe at her performance.
-Ian McKellen, Billy Crudup, and Patrick Stewart in Waiting for Godot.
-An Evening with Patti LuPone and Mandy Patinkin… need I say more?
-And I've got to add Emma Thompson from the recent New York Philharmonic concert of Sweeney Todd. I have NEVER seen her act like that before.
