Strange topic, I know, but I was going through my old programs today while cleaning out my desk, and came across the one from our 2001 production of Sleeping Beauty. Listed in the cast was a "Sara Ramirez". Anyone you know have the same uncommon first, same last, or full name as a theatre star?

My best friend Richard Gerbil always gets good seats at restaurants because they're expecting some star from the original Broadway cast of Bent.

I taught a girl in summer camp this year named Sutton. She had no idea who she was.

Down therough the years I've taught students with extremely bizarre names. My all-time favorite was Richard J. Slappy.
A close second was Perfume Jenkins. I'm not kidding when I say that she has a younger sister named "Aroma".

Anyhow, as far as Broadway names are concerned, I've taught a Grace Kelly, a Danny Thomas, a Forrest Tucker and
an Elizabeth Ashley. None of them had any significant talent.
