It’s a list filled with people who most wouldn’t choose and that’s not a bad thing.

Oh, I don't know...I'd say that about 1/2 would my own list .

I so agree with Jesse about Judy Kuhn. Her Fosca was devastating. I think a piece of my soul was left at Classic Stage during that performance.

Mind boggling to me that Nathan Lane is not on his list.

Kara Young is a pretty glaring omission.

Audra McDonald a bigger omission.

Jessica Hecht elevates anything she is in.

Marin Ireland should be here over most of the people listed.

Add to my list Brandon Uranowitz and Danny Burstein.

"sweats charisma" for Groff gets Green a +1 for clever phrasing
These lists are always so subjective, but he offers a nice mix. Six of these fine actors were already on my list. Happy to have some more to add.

Agree with Jesse completely, and I'm so happy that after more than 18 years of being on Broadway, Future Tony Award Winner Joshua is getting so much love.

Metcalf was included, so I’m set.
