Helen Hayes was indeed known as the First Lady of the American Theater whereas Mary Martin was sometimes referred to as the First Lady of the American Musical Theater. As far as today's royalty goes, Dame Angela Lansbury is certainly up there as is Audra MacDonald. Nathan Lane and James Earl Jones would be included on the male side and I think Bernadette Peters, Patti Lupone and perhaps Frank Langella would be amongst Broadway's royalty. I know I have left some out.
