Jeanette Names Her Favorite Performances of 2009

It's been a lot of fun seeing so many people send in their choices for best show or best performance of 2009. Here's the latest, from my pal Jeanette.

She writes:

Favorite performances for 2009 - what I've seen:

Breakout Performance: Nathan Mohebbi as Angel in Rent, as well as the entire chorus and band.

Best Non-Musical Peformance: Alyssa Fetherolf and Clint McElroy in I Ought To Be In Pictures.

Funniest Performance: Travis McElroy in Alexander Who's Not Not Not Not Not Not Going to Move. Honorable mention to Sarah Bryan's "Smoke on the Water" flute solo in the same show, and all the Rooney Girls.

Best Musical Performance: Ryan Hardiman, Mike Murdock and Marina Jurica in Man of La Mancha; as well as Maggie Saunders, Caleb Donahoe, Sarah Hayes and Mary Kate Young in Into the Woods.

Great choices! You'll get no argument from me!
