Also Ingrid Bergman's leading man in a brief engagement of Captain Brassbound's Conversion by GBS in 1972; Wilmington, DC and NY for two weeks.
But the first weekend of that two week run at the Barrymore was the Tony Awards and Bergman presented score, book and then Best Musical (to Two Gentlemen of Verona).

It is ridiculous to set a detective story in New York City. New York City is itself a detective story...

Pernell Roberts in a speedo. You're welcome.
"The gods who nurse this universe think little of mortals' cares. They sit in crowds on exclusive clouds and laugh at our love affairs. I might have had a real romance if they'd given me a chance. I loved him, but he didn't love me. I wanted him, but he didn't want me. Then the gods had a spree and indulged in another whim. Now he loves me, but I don't love him." - Cole Porter

I loved him. And because he was a very "private man" whose personal life was off-limits, I just know he might have loved me back, too.

While others were swooning over Michael Landon's "Little Joe" I had the hots for older brother "Adam". I even had one of his record albums when I was a kid. He was one sexy papi.

I saw Pernell Roberts as King Arthur in CAMELOT at the Westbury Music Fair in the late 60's.
May he rest in peace.
