Who would you name a Broadway, West End or other theatre after? (www.westendtheatre.com)

The linked - only somewhat morbid - article wonders which London theatres might be renamed after Andrew Lloyd Webber and Cameron Mackintosh once they have ascended on the great chandelier in the sky. and ventured beyond the barricade, respectively.

Lloyd Webber and Mackintosh's influence on theatre worldwide is undeniable, so I agree that it's inevitable that a theatre will be named after each of them eventually, certainly in London but perhaps also in New York. (Sondheim, after all, had theatres named after him in both cities, and while he was still alive even.)

Who do you think will have a theatre named after them (in any city), and who would you like to name a theatre after?
