A little over two years ago, AfterElton.com brought readers a list of the 37 Hottest Guys in Theater, and since then, the New York Stage has only become increasingly sexified. The lines between Broadway and Hollywood continue to blur, and as young men come to recognition in NYC, they're often quickly whisked away to Tinseltown to showcase not only their amazing talent, but often they're breathtaking good looks.
While it's tempting to include every Hollywood hottie who graces the stage on this list (a certain Lee Pace and Luke Macfarlane spring to mind), the point here is to honor the men who are mostly known for rockin' the live stages here in New York.
And so, without further ado, we present, in alphabetical order, the list (39!) of this year's hottest guys in theater!

Okay, so this wasn’t too tough of a race to call. Most people got 4 out 5 choices. Many chose, as I did, Joel and Ethan Coen instead of David O. Russell.

You know, they just don't make musicals like Yank! anymore.
And that's a real shame, because Yank!, now in previews at the York theater, succeeds on just about every level that a musical can.
The show opens with a present day San Franciscan kid finding a journal in an old junk shop, and upon reading it is sucked into the world of which it speaks: the life of an innocent young World War II private named Stu. We see the army through Stu's eyes, and in the grand tradition of old-school musicals like South Pacific, boot camp is the perfect place for a bunch of green soldiers to burst into cleverly choreographed song and dance.
And that's really what's so refreshing about Yank!. In an era of ironic, self-aware musicals, where much of the comedy...
