<a href="http://ox-d.broadway.com/w/1.0/rc?cs=516707ea184ce&cb=INSERT_RANDOM_NUMBER_HERE" ><img src="http://ox-d.broadway.com/w/1.0/ai?auid=399471&cs=516707ea184ce&cb=INSERT_RANDOM_NUMBER_HERE" border="0" alt=""></a>

Over the past 25 years plenty of acclaimed actors have come and gone through the Majestic Theatre to don the half-mask of Broadway’s most iconic theater-lovin’ ghost, the titular Phantom of the Opera. Next week marks the show’s quarter-century anniversary, and Broadway.com will be celebrating the show's incredible achievement with loads of Phantom coverage. The Tony-winning musical still packs in crowds and as the show isn't going anywhere any time soon, we couldn't help but brainstorm a list of leading Broadway men who've yet to haunt the Opera Populaire. We want to know: Which Broadway star would you like to see play the Phantom? Vote below—it’s all we ask of you.
