I almost cried when I read this post. Seriously cried. Now I understand that not everyone is old enough to have witnessed stage magic of legends gone by, BUT please, if there is any hope for the american musical theatre tell me that you are not serious! Look, I LOVE Nathan Lane and LOOOVE Kristen Chenoweth twice as much, but do you realize what the term "of all time" means. You are talking about the entire Golden Age of American Musical Theatre as well as the last 20 years. Let me just clue you in: there was theatre before Les Mis!!!! Years of it. Even if you weren't there to experience it there are recordings and books and videos to guide you. Please. If you call yourself a musical theatre fan and only know the shows from the last 10 years that will get you no where. The reason today's theatre is lacking is exactly this reason. No one is prepared to really examen the old material and work from past successes and failures to create a genuine GREAT piece of musical theatre.

Please tell me someone remembers Zero Mostel, Jerry Orbach, Robert Morse, Victor Moore, Phil Silvers, and John Cullum.

Please tell me that someone wants to give a shout out for Elaine Stritch or Bea Lillie or Barbra Streisand or Mary Martin or Angela Lansbury or Nancy Walker or Ethel Merman!!!!!

Because if no one does, I may just die.

"Please tell me that someone wants to give a shout out for Elaine Stritch or Bea Lillie or Barbra Streisand or Mary Martin or Angela Lansbury or Nancy Walker or Ethel Merman!!!!"

Then why don't you? What do you think?

Again, my opinion is based on what I saw, now out of all time, so I didn't answer exactly what the thread asked. Except "All I Ask Of You," but that is my opinion again.
