On Sunday, May 11, Mario Lopez (who recently joined A Chorus Line in the role of Zach) hosted a special concert of performances from eligible Broadway musicals from the 2007-2008 season. The program will air in New York on WCBS-TV on Saturday, June 7 and on CBS affiliates nationwide from May 26-June 7.

Here's the amazing Faith Prince, who stars in the new musical A Catered Affair.

Kerry Butler and Cheyenne Jackson star in Xanadu, which just won the Outer Critics Circle Award for Outstanding New Broadway Musical, in a tie with Young Frankenstein.

Daniel Breaker, Eisa Davis, and Stew star in the critically acclaimed new musical, Passing Strange.

The lovely Sierra Boggess plays the title role in Disney's The Little Mermaid.

Christopher Jackson and Mandy Gonzalez are two of the talented stars of In the Heights.

Alli Mauzey plays the seriously disturbed (but incredibly funny) Lenora in the new John Waters musical, Cry-Baby.

As far as revivals go, Gypsy is a leading contender. Here's Leigh Ann Larkin and Outer Critics Circle Award winner Laura Benanti, who play sisters June and Louise.

Daniel Evans stars in the title roles of the revival of Sunday in the Park With George.

Loretta Ables Sayre portrays Bloody Mary in Lincoln Center's revival of Rodgers & Hammerstein's beloved South Pacific.

Finally, here's Laura Osnes and Max Crumm, who star in the Broadway revival of Grease.
