Congratulations to Dean M. Allen, Fred Aronowitz, Anya Toes, Susan Berlin, Brigadude, Marc Castle, Jason Clark, Kevin Daly, Robert Ellowitz, Ron Fassler, Don Gibbs, Cathy Jones, Jack Lechner, Braden Mechley, Marc Miller, Joe Regan, Steve Rosenthal, Dan Saccente, Ron Schroeder, Dick Sherwin, and William Baldwin Young. Each scored 100% on the Broadway University Strangest Oscar Quiz You’ll Ever Take.

Back in February, I gave them the year a performer won an Oscar – and the name of the play or musical in which he or she had appeared or would appear. Just from those two pieces of information, these oh-so-smart readers were able to provide me with the name of the Oscar-winner and the name of the film for which he won.

Aside from 2007, every year had at least one winner in the four Oscar acting categories who had appeared – or would appear – in a professional New York show. I also told the contestants that one person was the answer to two years, though I gave a different play for each year of the Oscar win. It still posed no problem for these smarties.
