You're welcome! I hope you get a chance to hear him do something other than Bare at some point.

On another John Bucchino note: his piano variation on My Favorite Things at the composer's night for the Kerry campaign brought me to tears. It was UN-BE-LIEV-A-BLE!
Word. Word, indeed.

Alright, back on topic folks. Can you think of anyone else? So far, we have, in MY book at least, Michael Arden....and that's it. Still pretty much a dirth, wouldn't you say?
Word. Word, indeed.

Max Von Essen<== currently playing the title character in DORIAN
Christian Borle<--- quirky, but can still get it done
Hunter Foster<=== living it right now, going from lead to lead
Aaron Ramey<=== just played Lindbergh in TAKE FLIGHT workshop, covered Gavin and Marc in MILLIE
Jarrod Emmick<=== living it at the Palace very soon, Tony winner
Patrick Wilson<=== starring in Phantom movie, two time Tony nominee
Raul Esparza<==== good actor, good singer, different
Neil Patrick Harris<=== did good work in ASSASSINS, has "Doogie" celebrity status to get the attention of audiences
Jason Wooten and Tony Vincent<=== busy singing Queen in Vegas, both solid singers
Colin Hanlon<=== currently in Rent, cute, good actor, good singer, preparing to star in Mr. Arden's new musical at Joe's Pub
Danny Gurwin<=== playing opposite Sutton Foster in LITTLE WOMEN
Barrett Foa<=== covering leads in Avenue Q
Norbert Leo Butz<==== living it in DIRTY ROTTEN SCOUNDRELS this season, Tony nominated for THOU SHALT NOT
Some of these are CURRENT leading men (like Hunter and Jarrod) as opposed to up and comers.
Some of these are a bit quirkier than others. And there are more quirky leading men like Chad Kimball, Jesse Tyler Ferguson, etc.

Speed, most of the men you just named, while very talented, are too old to be young leading men.
