My list comes from the heart...
1) Hugh Jackman and Jarrod Emick's on-stage kiss in The Boy From Oz. The new Dynasty!
2) The combination of Rosie O'Donnell, Boy George and the very talented cast of Taboo. Rosie, you've always supported Broadway, now it's time that Broadway supports you!
3) The DROP DEAD GORGEOUS women of Nine + Antonio Banderas. Do we now understand why Melanie was across the street in Chicago?
4) The lovely Tina Maddigan and Joe Machota in Mamma Mia! Things will never be the same without the girl with golden hair. I can't wait to see your smiling face on the next stage.
5) The Lamb in Gypsy. I am proud to say I am a member of the Lamb Chop fan club!
6) Jerry Mitchell (who has the best buns in the industry) and Broadway Bares. Chorus boys are vital to any good production. They go great with the scenery! They should get paid as much as the leads so they can buy better shampoo than Suave.
7) Marissa Jaret Winoker, Matthew Morrison and Harvey Fierstein in Hairspray. Marissa is a role model for girls today, Matt is a hunk with a big heart and vine, and Harvey Fierstein is a wonderful mother and great kisser.
8.) Max von Essen for his manners, his sense of style and his amazing ability to be on everyone's guest list. This is your year, Mr. GQ. I can feel it in my blood!!
9) Matt Cavenaugh and the entire sexy cast of Urban Cowboy for giving the same kick ass performance to a full house, an entire row or a single seat. You showed them what a consistent, professional performance means.
10) Congratulations to all the actors who made their Broadway debuts. Now that you're finally on the map, don't get eaten alive and don't drink too much at parties.
One for good measure...
11) Bravo to the nice fans and future actors with big hearts and big dreams who don't gossip or spread vicious rumors. I'm a huge fan of all the folks I mentioned above and some people on this very message board. You all know who you are! 
Did I pass, Sir?

Posted: 1/16/04 at 12:21amHold on, I'm reaching for a tissue. THANK YOU PHANTOM. I'm sure this thread will now dwindle into history. It was a great run. However, I noticed BroadwayBulldog's thread. Hmmmmmmmm, I have a problem with piggy backing.

Posted: 1/16/04 at 1:21amBestOfBroadway - You act like a dog sitting in the cold, watching his master and friends at a warm gathering, thinking of everything you can, to be noticed and commanded to come inside only to sit at our feet. If you were my dog, I would have had made sure you were trained so didn't bother people. Welllll, maybe I would just put a muzzle on you and only take it off to feed you. GO AWAY. YOU'RE RUDE.

Gosh, I'm blushing like I've just been asked out on a date by a handsome stranger. I might attend if I knew that were the case.
Aside from that, got any GREAT things to say and send some joy out into the BroadwayWorld today?
