Karen, Great list. I would only add Harrison Ford.

Remembering that Harold Hill is as much of a singing role as King Arthur is in CAMELOT, I can think of a number of actors who could have played this charming, fast-talking con man with far more elan and credibility than Matthew Broderick. Just off the top of my head:
Kevin Kline* Mel Gibson Leonardo DiCaprio John Travolta* Christopher Walken* Will Smith (he can rap - which is good enough for this role) Kenneth Branagh* Jim Carrey (proved he can sing on the Larry Sanders show in '98)
*have musical theatre credits under their belts
