Neil Patrick Harris

I really really want him to come back to Broadway....I think he'd be great for selling tickets too with the success of "How I Met Your Mother" and "Harold and Kumar."

"I think he'd be great for selling tickets"

Well sure, he's very polite, I'd buy a ticket from him! But with all his talent someone really should put him on stage.

"OH! SARCASM! THAT'S ORIGINAL!"

Neil Patrick Harris, please come back to Broadway. We miss you.

If Neil Patrick Harris comes to Broadway, I will rush to see him regardless of what show he's in.

But unless How I Met Your Mother gets cancelled, he's going to have a hard time getting back to Broadway. With a limited schedule, he could probably only do a non-profit limited run (that could not be extended because of his schedule) or a short run in an already-running show.

When he's done with How I Met Your Mother (which hopefully won't be for a very long time. I LOVE that show.) he should hop on a new musical or revival.

I know that when he did the tour of Rent, he wasn't as big a name as he is now. But, I have felt that there was a time not that long ago when he did make a name for himself and Rent was stunt casting that I thought he should do Rent on Broadway. Even though it would have been stunt casting, it would have been stunt casting that I would be okay with. Besides, it really wouldn't be like they were dragging in just any famous person to play the role of Mark.

Yeah whenever he has time off from How I Met Your Mother I think it'd be great if he came back to Broadway. Also, I hope that show lasts a long time it's one of my favorites. =]

And speaking of Dr. Horrible, I think it'd be AMAZING on Broadway! They'd just have to make it loner, but definitely with the same cast.

When Rent had its West Coast premiere at the La Jolla Playhouse in San Diego (before it moved up to LA) I had no idea that NPH was in the cast, that is until I arrived at the theater. Everyone in the foyer keep talking about how the Doggie Howser kid was in it. In fact one of the ushers said, "He may not have the best voice but he makes up for it with his acting."
What can I say? I was amazed not just because of his acting talent (which was spot on) but his vocals as well. This was the same night that Madonna was there too. :)

Anyways --- when they were talking about the RENT movie I thought NPH would have been a great choice of Mark. I know everyone loves themselves some Anthony Rapp but he is a little hard on the eyes (in my opinon). My dreamcast would have included Justin Timberlake as Roger which I know many people would disagree with so I acknowledge my choices for casting are not to everyone's taste.

Also, Wilson Cruz was in the same La Jolla cast too.

I would honestly go to New York and see NPH in just about anything. He was great in Todd and I can't get the score from Dr. Horrible out of my head. The only downside to a possible Broadway return is, of course, the necessity of Barney on HIMYM. Hmmm, if only...

He played Toby in the chicago concert version of sweeney with George Hearn and Patti Lupone

Yes, he definitely SHOULD host the Tonys. I didn't put that together that he's a CBS star. Why hasn't this happened yet?!

He was recently added to the list of Disney's "Candlelight Processional" guest narrators in December (right before Brian Stokes Mitchell) at Epcot.

Yay !!!
