Who's the Most Famous Person on this Board?

[Alex Kulak2]

I know Adam Guettel pops in from time to time, but are there any other notable performers, writers, composers, etc., who have accounts on this forum?

I mean, Hogan is my personal Hero, but I assume that's not exactly what you meant.

Marc Shaiman used to but I don't think he's posted in a long time.

[DooWahDiddy]

I'm certainly not famous, but I did release a CD with Broadway performers, including Michael Cerveris, and wrote a musical that was presented in NYC earlier this year.  I've worked with many famous people, haha.

I'm Tippi Hedren.

I still do.

Dave Malloy made a few posts on here years ago, before he got theatre-famous. Remember his 'Slushy in the Face' article? Responses to it here was largely dismissive at the time, but I guess he got the last laugh :)

There have also been mentions on the board that Anthony Rapp made some posts on here years ago, although I haven't seen those myself.

I can understand professionals avoiding this board though. I wouldn't use my downtime to read strangers' opinions of how I was doing my job.

Patti Murin is the most infamous for trying to take the board down. She seemed to be a lurker and never a poster though. 

[Mister Matt]

Yes, Anthony Rapp, Fredi Walker and Chita Rivera all used to post here.  And didn't Orfeh get into a kerfuffle with someone on the board as well?

[ggersten]

I don't know what is meant by "famous" - but actor/director/producer/recording executive Bruce Kimmel does post here.  Plus, he was on several episodes of The Brady Bunch.

I was the toast of my middle school after our production of Peter Pan. I was Twin #2, but my mom said I might as well have been Twin #1. 

[MannPhan24601]

Pretty sure Sheryl Lee Ralph posted on here once when she started her run in Wicked...

One of the Tracys from Hairspray did, but can't remember which one.

Oh my god, YES. He tried to convince me that there was no pitch correction whatsoever on the Hairspray soundtrack.

I'm pretty sure she posted. And made many insulting comments.  Ask Pal Joey. He's still waiting for an apology, I think. 

[Dollypop]

Nick Spangler posts here once in a while. Nathan Lane used to show up in the past.Michael Urie lurks.

[Marianne2]

I recall posts from Brooke Tansley.  I think she posted a few times about the business side that people were not correct about. Her posts were interesting.

You're Twin #2?! I stagedoored and you never came out!

Rapp asked a poster to change their review of the reNt film , it was crap them and still crap now 

[blaxx]

Definitely Rapp trying to do his 'best' to defend the ReNt movie. He whined so bad and could not take a single negative opinion about it. It was the most embarrassing in the board's history.
