My first show was the Broadway revival of '42nd Street', which didn't really get me into the theater thang (spelled that way purposely). I saw it when I was 12.

"The King and I.

I really need help, who played Anna in November, 1997 "

On Broadway? Wasn't that Donna Murphy? Maureen McGovern did the National Tour.

Les Miserables when i was 4 in 1995.
Back, he spurred like a madman, shrieking a curse to the sky. With the white road smoking behind him and his rapier brandished high! Blood-red were the spurs i' the golden noon; wine-red was his velvet coat, when they shot him down on the highway, down like a dog on the highway, and he lay in his blood on the highway, with the bunch of lace at his throat... (The Highwayman. Sung by: Loreena McKennitt)

Evita 2nd bway cast
First Professional tour - Pippin w/ Michael Rupert
I believe that Faith Prince had taken over the role of Anna in the King and I revival by Nov. '97.
The three Anna's during that run were
Donna Murphy - Tony award
Faith Prince
Marie Osmond

Phantom of the Opera, with Hugh Panaro, in January. After years of national tours I finally made it to the top! ....and then saw Brooklyn the next night:)

Cats. I was 8. A good first Broadway show. The first Broadway tour I saw was Beauty and the Beast. No idea how old I was then.
