Six time Tony Winner Audra McDonald is actually perfect, so why wouldn't she be brilliant at sharing her life on social media?

3. Lin-Manuel Miranda

Lin-Manuel Miranda is the Bob Ross of Twitter. You know he's a genius, but his musings still make you feel valuable and motivated. Miranda's legendary good morning/good night tweets are so inspiring that they're now available in book form!

4. Patti Murin

She may be playing a Princess on Broadway in Frozen, but Patti Murin is super relatable. From awkward interactions at a coffee shop to adventures at The Container Store, her feed is almost as entertaining as her performances.

5. Betty Buckley

This star is leading the tour for the wildly popular Hello, Dolly! revival, but she still finds time to post about what she's up to, offering thoughts on politics, motivational quotes, and moments backstage while she's on the road.
