very good list!
For me, Julie Andrews will always be on the top of the list
I'd love to see Raúl Esparza (aww) in anything!!
Hope one day Kate Winslet would come to perform on Broadway.

Hugh Jackman has been in four Broadway engagements:
The Boy From Oz - yearlong run
A Steady Rain with Daniel Craig/BackOnBway/TheRiver - limited engagements.
He won a Tony for TBFO & given a 2nd one for his work in BackOnBway ( which did not qualify as a musical theatreshow) & for his humanitarian work (top Fundraiser for BC/EFA)
He has also hosted four Tonys.
Ironically, he trained in dramatic theatre but had his 1st theatrical job in Beauty&TheBeast( as Gaston) & found fame in film (when XMen producer LSDonner helped cast him as Wolverine after seeing him in Oklahoma!). Trevor Nunn cast him in Oklahoma! after casting him in Sunset Blvd in his native Australia. He was Jean Valjean in the film adaptation of Les Miserables & headlined The Greatest Showman.
He must be one of Broadway's Shining Stars in its firmament...even if he has to balance between a film and theatre career !
Looking forward to seeing him in The Music Man!

Angela Lansbury would be at the top of my list. But considering that a couple years ago it was mentioned that she would no longer appear on stage. (Same as James earl Jones) I didn’t mention them.
I was trying to think of performers that could possibly have another run in them

Sadly, I don’t think we’ll see Angela again. She’s done a couple things, voice only this past year and even in those you can hear how frail she sounds.

Miranda will make sure everyone sees him whether they like it or not.

My favorite stage actresses are Laura Linney and Mary-Louise Parker. Everyone should witness them act live. Katrina Lenk is also a must see, in anything. So is Christian Borle.
I've never seen Audra Mcdonald perform on stage and this is on the top of my theater bucket list. I hope I'll get to see her in the next couple of years.
