I have only seen one show on Broadway, so it's a surprise that I have seen Ron Bohmer, Norm Lewis, and Julia Murney each twice (well, okay, with Norm Lewis, it was intentional). I've also seen Tracy Lynn Olivera four times, but she only has one Broadway credit to my knowledge.

And without knowing he was in any of them, I bought three cast recordings of musicals with Robert Westenberg in one day. (Guess who got an iTunes gift card as a present?)

It's probably going to be Geoffrey Streatfeild. Which is very pleasing! I've seen him in Henry IV Part 1, Henry IV Part 2, Henry V, Henry VI Part 1, Henry VI Part 2, Henry VI Part 3, Richard III, The Contingency Plan, Pains of Youth, and Eigengrau. So far! And I will continue seeing him in things for as long as he is in things. He is MARVELLOUS. :3

Broadway performers? Erm... does Jenny Galloway count? Seen her in Les Mis (on Broadway), Mary Poppins, The Music Man, and After the Dance. I don't get many opportunities to see Broadway performers, y'all. XD
