Viola Davis
William Harrison Surber: VIOLA DAVIS!!!! Because she can say anything and I would believe it.
While it's unlikely that Viola Davis would be cast as Mister, Playbill.com couldn't resist featuring the two-time Tony Award winner in this week's poll. The star, who we would love to lure back to the New York stage, has appeared on Broadway in Fences, King Hedley II and Seven Guitars. She is also a Drama Desk Award, Outer Critics Circle and Theatre World Award winner.
