I saw 7 of the 10--most wouldn't make my list.

I liked Dead Metaphor, Pageant, 1776, Pianst, The Bus and Chance (not perfect musical) better than those.

How 1776 isn't at the top of any 2013 list is beyond me.

We agree on some. "1776" "pianist" and "Chance"

Interesting selection. I am working on my Top Ten however I am breaking it down to Top Ten Regional Productions, Top Ten Regional Musicals and Top Ten Touring and Non-Regional productions. I am also doing Top Ten Actors and Actresses in regional productions plus Ton Ten Actor and Actresses in regional musical productions.

I agree with Karen in one of her regional productions and that is Buried Child at the Magic plus No Man's Land and Beautiful in the non regional productions.

richard, i agree that we have some big actors in the bay area, but i doubt that any on them weigh a ton.

sorry, could not help myself.
