Anthony Warlow, Raul Esparza, CZJ (only she would make me look extremely bad lol), Anthony Rapp, Heather Headly, Jonathan Larson, any of the people on the boards even though i dont personally know any of you but you are such a fun crowd and im sure that would keep my life interesting to say the least
Gary Mauer- Brilliant voice, beautiful man. The best Phantom I have ever seen. I would be honored to work with him. He brought me to tears.
Rebecca Pitcher- Beautiful voice, so much to learn from her. She made me really want to pursue Opera.
Carly Jibson- Due to her greatness, and 'from Michigan-ness', and she made the role of Tracy for me. (Saw her in Chi-town) And made me really want to be a model for younger 'heavier set' girls out there.
And as a composer, Andrew Lloyd Webber, no doubt. I've grown up with his musicals, and have seen them multiple times. I would bow down before this man, seeing as he brought me into Musical Theatre.
Male: Raul Esparza (Because he's absolutely amazing and I love him)And also Adam Pascal because of the same reasons as Raul Female: Idina Menzel (because she's been my favorite actress since 199 Composer: Andrew Lloyd Webber (because I LOVE his music!)
Sutton Foster, Susan Egan, Gavin Creel and Hunter Foster. Definitely.
EDIT: And Adam Pascal, obviously.
"It does what a musical's supposed to do. It takes you to another world, and it gives you a little tune to carry with you in your head for when you're feeling blue."
This is all from an admin. point of view, just as a note.
I'd love to work with Brian d'Arcy James, if only the pieces would come together on that (twice there's been a chance with a "last minute" change). Time will tell, eh?
Mel Brooks, Lea Salonga, James Barbour, and Neil Patrick Harris. And I'd love to write lyrics for an ALW show. Direct a Lippa show. SM a Sondheim show. I'd also like to write a part with NPH in mind.

can Doogie Howser sing? I've never heard him in anything
"Applause begets applause in the theatre, as laughter begets laughter and tears beget tears."
CLAYTON HAMILTON, "Theory of the Theatre"
"I think theater ought to be theatrical ... you know, shuffling the pack in different ways so that it's -- there's always some kind of ambush involved in the experience. You're being ambushed by an unexpected word, or by an elephant falling out of the cupboard, whatever it is."
TOM STOPPARD
Raul Esparza. Because of his acting ability, his personality and most of all because of his enormous intelligence. I'd love to just sit down and talk to him about something really deep.
Actors: Michael Arden, Raul Esparza Actresses: Kristin Chenoweth, Sutton Foster Director: Joe Mantello Composers: Sondheim, Damon Intrabartolo, Jason Robert Brown

I would also LOVE to sing soulful ballads with Soshana Bean. It would be magical. And add Anthony Warlow into the mix and it will be the best damn recording ever to be recorded.
