HOT or NOT Round 14: The Cabaret Edition

Sixteen years ago, the revival of Cabaret raised the bar for what audiences expect from a musical revival. Sam Mendes and Rob Marshall brought the already classic back in a gritty, harsh re-imagining that is now legendary. Well that classic revival is back on Broadway at The Kit Kat Klub (aka Studio 54) and starring Alan Cumming in the role that earned him a Tony Award. The rest of the company is new - some debutantes, some Broadway staples, and all of them ready to entertain, amuse and terrify us. Outside, it is cold. But in here, things are HOT...or NOT.

For the fourteenth time this season, it is up to you to decide who moves on to the finals in our quest for THE HOTTEST MUSICAL CAST OF 2013 - 2014! Objectifying, I guess, but really also just silly fun. That said, let me remind you that "HOT" is not just based on beauty or matinee idol looks or a killer bod. Also up for consideration is their performance, their "buzz-worthy-ness," and the trajectory of their career. Is their role this time around a milestone or a misery? Are the chat rooms a-buzz with delight or humming with impending doom? HOT to look at isn't enough to make it into the finals - even the cutest can be a "NOT"! To see who has already made the finals, click HERE. THE POLL IS AFTER THE PHOTOS! PLEASE KEEP SCROLLING!
