And if you'd care to say why, is it the voice itself, style of delivery, comic timing, body language or something else that gets you giddy?

The cast of Spamalot and Dirty Rotten Scoundrels were hilarious.
Amy Spanger and Kevin Cahoon were hilarious in The Wedding Singer.
Felicia P. Fields brought the house down at The Color Purple

Most people here won't know's the actress, but Beth Flynn is the funniest actress I've ever seen. She's an actress in Denver, and occasionly does theatre elsewhere.
"If this is going to be a Christian nation that doesn't help the poor, either we have to pretend that Jesus was just as selfish as we are, or we've got to acknowledge that He commanded us to love the poor and serve the needy without condition and then admit that we just don't want to do it." -Stephen Colbert

Marian Seldes: An extraordinary genius of body language, delivery and deadpan panache. Flawless, peerless and unique.
Madeline Kahn: The voice. The delivery. The face.
Julie White: Yes--it's a shtick, but she's brilliant at it.

Also add Dame Edna, Bill Irwin, the late great Dorothy Loudon and Dame Maggie Smith who gave perhaps the single funniest performance I've ever seen, in LETTICE AND LOVAGE over a decade ago -- I hope I can see her on stage again someday.
