That's always puzzled me. In recent years, it's been the launching pad for ''Newsies'' and ''Honeymoon in Vegas,'' but it began in 1938. And its alumni reads like a who's who: Tallulah Bankhead, Barbara Cook, Jane Fonda, Bea Lillie, Myrna Loy, Ann Miller, Liza Minnelli and Chita Rivera. Plus, Bernadette Peters, Patrick Swayze and Kristin Chenoweth. Its productions of ''Show Boat'' and ''Crazy for You'' were aired on PBS. And winners and nominees from its Rising Stars program, which celebrates high school students, have included Laura Benanti, Rob McClure and Anne Hathaway. The Regional Tony has been given out since 1976 - almost 40 years. It seems that the Paper Mill is waaaay overdue for recognition.
