Rupert, Michael
(b. Michael Ruppert)
Actor, singer, composer
b. Oct. 23, 1951 (San Marino, CA)
At age 16, Rupert made an impressive Broadway debut as Bibi in The Happy Time (1968), sharing the showstopper "A Certain Girl" with co-stars Robert Goulet and David Wayne -- and earning his first Tony nomination. Unlike many child performers, his talent and looks only improved with time. After several years in TV and film, Rupert took over the title role in the long-running Pippin (1976). He created the pivotal role of Marvin in William Finn's March of the Falsettoes (1981), and served double duty as composer and co-star of the Off-Broadway hit Three Guys Naked From the Waist Down (1985). Rupert won a well-deserved Tony playing the manic Oscar in a revival of Sweet Charity (1986). After composing and starring in the short-lived Mail (1988), he played Marvin again in Falsettoland (1990), and led the cast when Finn's two one acts came to Broadway as the surprise hit Falsettoes (1992). He appeared in the 2004 Paper Mill revival of Baby.

I've never been to an actual Broadway show in NYC, but I've been to touring productions of Broadway shows in Pittsburgh.
I've seen Ragtime, Annie Get Your Gun, Phantom of the Opera, and Hairspray.
They are all great musicals.
My favorite would have to be either Phantom or Hairspray.
Both are fantastic.

I saw the tour of RENT starring Harely Jay as Mark and Declan Bennett as Roger. It was amazing!

For me, it's a toss-up between "Sweeney Todd" (I saw Len Cariou and Dorothy Loudon) and "Noises Off" (again, Dorothy Loudon, and, I believe, Paxton Whitehead)
