JUSTIN GUARINI?!?! I've got to wait to see him in something before I second that. I thought he was dreadful on AMERICAN IDOL.
My vote goes to Kerry Butler. Where is HER Tony Award? Sure, she gets lots of great roles, but she doesn't get much recognition for them! An Outer Critics' Circle nod here and a Clarence Derwent Award there, but where's the TONY???
Robert Evan IS very good, broadwaynut20. I saw him as Orin Scrivello (D.D.S.) in LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS.

hes come a long way since having to tow the American Idol mark and do things their way. This past summer he really stood out at Vassar in Good Vibrations. His dancing was especially incredible and he just exuded charisma and star power on that stage. People were really impressed, even those who hadnt known who he was before. I hope you will get a chance to see him perform and enjoy him.

oh and you know who is also really good . Ryan Link
We saw him when he was performing at the Broadway Rockers event, that Justin did too and Ryan was hot hot hot!
He definitely has star quality too!

Basically the entire cast of Taboo. Well I guess Raul gets a lot of recognition, but he deserves more in my opinion.

DEFINITELY Norm Lewis. He is really awesome.

Yeah...Tari Kelly for sure. And I like I'm the only person on this earth...or atleast on the board that disagrees with Norbet. THen again, I only saw him in Wicked.

Jen Barnhart is definitley under-rated. She is such a sweet person and would stay forever to talk to you at the stage door of Q. She really is ever so sweet and barely gets any recognition.
People like you are the reason I'm on medication.

Okay, I just want to second Christian Borle and Julia Murney. And Raúl? I thought he gets quite a bit...

Definitly have to agree with Tari Kelly. That girl has some amazing vocal skills.

On the subject of LSoH...I could be entirely wrong because this is the only thing I've heard him in but what about Micheal James Leslie? Is he fairly well known?

hahaha, I think we could all consider ourselves underrated here. Throw a bunch of actors together who love the spotlight and its what you get. :-P

I think that we can add Kate Burton to this list. Yes, she has been in several high profile productions and has been nominated for two Tonys, but she is largely unknown and underrated.
I would also like to echo Veanne Cox.
