There is so much to celebrate in the month of March! The worst of winter is behind us, and the lights continue to rise on new productions of plays and musicals on the Broadway stage. In addition to being Women's History Month, March is a special month for a host of amazing artists who have graced the Great White Way. Warm up your singing voices and light some candles for the gifted performers, directors, playwrights, we celebrate this month.

And for those of you hoping for celestial intervention, let this month's horoscopes help you see which way the water will flow and the wind will blow. It's Pisces and Aries season!

Starting off the month are Lindsay Mendez (Carousel, Godspell) and Jeanna de Waal (Sweeney Todd, Diana, Kinky Boots), whose birthdays fall on March 1. 

007 and musicals-loving detective Benoit Blanc, Daniel Craig (Macbeth), follows with a birthday on March 2.

Soon to be seen on the Broadway stage in a Noël Coward-inspired comedy and in Oliver! at New York City Center, Lilli Cooper (The Cottage, POTUS, Tootsie), celebrates her birthday on March 4.

Currently on stage in the Broadway revival of Camelot, Andrew Burnap (The Inheritance), shares a birthday with Pass Over playwright Antoinette Chinonye Nwandu on March 5.
