There are so many talented actors in London that need to come to Broadway in the future. Who are some of your favorites that should come to Broadway?

I mean I'm still bitter that we were robbed of Patsy Ferran and Russell Tovey in Virginia Woolf.

Fleeshamn was on Broadway with Ghost. He was great!
I want Carrie - the star of Cinderella. Her voice is incredible.

All of the actors in the post you are referring to have been on Broadway, even Jonathan Groff, who was born in Pennsylvania.

Hannah Waddingham. I want to hear her sing every song ever written.

Sorry wrong Jonathan. I meant Jonathan Bailey.
But as for the others. Yes they’ve been on Broadway before. I was hoping for a return. I didn’t think the OP specified.

Alfie Boe & Ruthie Henshall both need to return to Broadway, and I would love to see Carrie Hope Fletcher bring her Cinderella here

Rory Kinnear and Ralph Fiennes were the first to come to my mind, but whoever said Hannah Waddingham…yes please.

Philip Quast is one that comes to mind right away. I know for years, he had said that he would not wish to preform on Broadway at all. I am sure he had chances to do so as well. Yet, he did to the concert of Sweeney Todd with the New York Philharmonic. So, who knows, perhaps things can change.

I’d also love to see Jonathan Bailey. Was super impressed by John McCrae when I saw him as Jamie in Everybody’s Talking About Jamie. He also had a memorable role in Cruella recently. I’d really love Back to the Future to come over, but I haven’t seen it, so I don’t know if the leads needs to transfer with it.

I’m still holding out the hope of her somehow getting Devil Wears Prada! Maybe after Beth leaves. She would be great as Miranda!!

With West End mainstay Sharon D. Clarke looking like the favourite for Best Actress at the Tonys this year after reprising her Oliver Award winning turn in Caroline or Change, it feels like a pretty good time to bring this up. My Top 3 West End stars who I would like to make Broadway debuts are...
1. Rosalie Craig
2. Clive Rowe
3. Miriam Teak Lee
Personally, as a Londoner, I'm a little more invested in people going the other direction, but it is a pretty fun source of pride when one of our West End mainstays succeeds in NYC...

I’m hoping Sharon will come back in “Death of a Salesman” with Wendell Pierce - the greatest production of that play I’ve ever seen.
