I'm sure many deserve attention, but Carmen Amaya immediately comes to mind.

What exactly do you mean by a 'foreign' performer? Someone who wasn't born in the US?

[andrewcomp]

Oh, well if never performed in the US then I like Rina Chinen alot.

Uh...yes, someone who is not originally from the USA.

You should post this on the America only board. Love it or leave it!

No need to d'oh at me. 'Favorite foreign performer' is a little confusing. Who's your favorite illegal immigrant b-way performer?

Anyhoo mine is Daphne Rubin-Vega.

Lea Salonga and Kerry Ellis(well technically she didn't start on Broadway yet)

Les Salonga and Hugh Jackman

My three favourite baritones are all Australian. Although as far as I'm aware, only Hugh Jackman has actually performed on Broadway. I insist we give Philip Quast and Anthony Warlow their dues though!

John Barrowman.. Yes I know he technically grew up in the USA he was born in Scotland and lives in the United Kingdom.

"John Barrowman.. Yes I know he technically grew up in the USA he was born in Scotland and lives in the United Kingdom."

Oh yeah. He's so cute and talented.

Hannah Waddingham is my other favorite, and today is her last day at Spamalot. Bummer.

For the men, Michael Ball is by far my favorite, then would come John Barrowman.
Females would be Lea Salonga.

Lea Salonga, Carole Shelley, Julie Andrews, Angela Lansbury, Audrey Hepburn (she did Gigi, and she was born in Belgium), Dudu Fisher (an Israeli Jean Valjean), Elaine Paige, okay she's not exactly a big "Broadway performer", but I do love Caissie Levy, Hugh Jackman, Pia Douwes, Laura Michelle Kelly, Jose Llana, Liliane Montevecchi, Chaim Topol, Miyoshi Umeki, Colm Wilkinson, John Barrowman, Alan Cumming, Antonio Banderas
