"the best of young broadway"....really?

[massofmen]

this is the "best of young broadway"? I am scared for when broadway becomes old.

I thought the best of "Young Broadway" would be Laura Osnes (south pacific, Grease), Aaron Tveit (hairspray, wicked, n2n, gossip girl), Lea Michelle (les Mis, Spring awakening,glee), Wesley Taylor (rock of ages, addams family) and Carly Jibson (hairspray, crybaby, fat camp). I think they are about the same age as all these people..who i have almost never heard of.
bunked?

Yeah, that list was bogus. Probably voted on by their pals. I mean come on, that Keenan-Bolger kid?? He's done a national tour! And didn't they pick that chick from the Legally Blonde reality show too?? The show
closed a month after she was in it and sue did a
Papermill show. If those are the future stars of Broadway we're in
trouble!!

wait, i don't think we're reading the same list. I don't see bailey or akb in that concert listing. and i mean not to get technical but that keenan-bolger kid has done like 7 or 8 bway/national tours. that's not exactly nothing.

Yeh, I'm a little confused as to what article you're referencing massofmen. Neither of those actors you mentioned were in that article.

Greatwhiteway3......It's a press release for a concert of a new musical, not a list "voted on by their pals."

The only I know is Autumn Hulbert. I'm glad she's still getting work after the MTV show.

I wouldn't call anyone on your list the best of young Broadway either. Your list is of several highly overrated performers.

[hicaesar]

when i think of the "best of young broadway" i think of zach rand, marlon sherman, trevor braum, kelsey fowler, and the billy kids.

[BwayTday]

Um.... massofmen and GreatWhiteWay3 what list you looking at? Cause there is...no list of best of young broadway in that article. Like I am really curious where you got Andrew Keenan-Bolger from that article. The Battery's Down? Anyway, Autumn, Cortney and Nina, love all of them.

Looks like the publicist was reaching more than a little when they wrote that press release. But I like your list, massofmen.
