Im new to this site and this is my first post. Im just wondering who are some of your favorites on the Great White Way.
My choice for actors may be a little unusual but: I love Brian Stokes Mitchell, Gregg Edelman, Christopher Sieber, and Marc Kudisch. I have seen all of them except for Marc but he is gonna be in Chitty Chitty Bang Bang Bang and Im not missing that
Actresses- Idina Menzel and Sutton Foster who I believe both deserved their Tony awards
