Who are all of your Kings, Queens, Princesses and Princes of Broadway? The Kings and Queens are people have done a lot, and will be remembered forever as musical theater legends who are currently, or have reigned over the musical theater world. The Princes and Princesses are people who have done a few things, but will eventually become Kings and Queens who will make their mark and be remembered for their talents. These people can be dead or alive, but remember, there can only be one of each!
King: The first name that comes to mind is Brian Stokes MItchell. This man has a voice that cannot be beat. NOt a lot of people think he's overrated. There's no doubt he can act. He can be comedic- Kiss Me Kate, serious- Man of La Mancha, in love, upset, etc. And that voice is so beautiful, and has such a rich tone. I am never dissapointed with his it. He sings with so much passion, and is such an amazing performer. That man is definately my Broadway King.
Queen: Julie Andrews, without a doubt. The woman is a legend, and will be when she's gone. She has made an inevitable mark on the musical theater world. She used to have a voice that was too perfect to be true. Whenever people think of her, you think of a Broadway legend. She is too talented to ever be forgotten. We all know there will never be another Julie Andrews.
Prince: My Broadway Prince is Gavin Creel. I know, I know, he hasn't done much, but he is so amazingly talented and he draws everyone to him on stage. His voice is so great. And he has the personality- this charisma about him and that makes him such an amazing performer. He produces such magic onstage. I think when he gets older, he will do some great things, and will do shows that REALLY showcase his talent, because there is no doubt that he has a lot!
Princess: Sutton Foster. She is my Broadway Princess, hands down. Now, if we want to talk about fantastic voices, let's talk about her. That voice is pure gold. To me, it's perfect in every way. She shines. She is going to do such great things. She sparkles in Millie. Her voice, her acting, her comedic timing, her chemistry with the other actors...she can't get any better. She will be remembered forever for what she can do. She is pure magic. In no way is she overrated.
Those are my Broadway Royals. Who are yours?
