Thanks for the kudos about the Ginger quote. I was reading last month's issue of Biography magazine and they did an entire spread about legendary actresses, and that quote was under Ginger's story and picture. I just loved the quote because it's quite true, :)
Anyway, back to the subject...another great, great actor is Shuler Hensley! I was just blown away by his performance in Oklahoma. I was so happy when he won the Tony.

Posted: 12/10/03 at 8:37pmAnother vote for Tom Hewitt. Don't know if Michael McCarthy counts, but he did close Les Miz on Broadway.

Brian Stokes Mitchell
Douglas Sills was great in Pimpernel, but I think he's ill suited (or ill-directed) in Little Shop
Chuck Wagner and Dave Clemmons were the best Javer-Valjean (respectively) team I've seen.
Kevin Kline (would love to see him in Witches of Eastwick)
James Barbour
Leo Norbert Butz is consistantly good and versatile
Anthony Crivello
The man who played Leo in the national tour of Parade (can't think of his name, but I've seen him on a couple of episodes of Law and Order) He was amazing!
Sam Harris (The best Joseph) Good as long as the MD can keep his R&B ornamentations at a minimum

Jai Rodriguez (Actor, Singer, Dancer, TV Show Personality)
I like him not only for his amazingly good looks, I love the energy he brings to a stage which is imperative (im into acting myself) he just has this aura about him that just blows people away. I am also a huge fan of his budding music career. He has released a single called "Love is Good" and is currently recording his debut album.

Alright, I'll bite my tongue and just pick one.....
John Dossett. He's taleted, cute and amazingly sweet and personable. He's always been one of my favorite people.

"Ok, anyone like any broadway actors besides their "good looks"?"
I saw hugh panaro in phantom and loved him in that...only afterwards did I see his headshot...so yeah...I liked him before I saw what he looked like.
