Probably singing or acting possibly dancing. Maybe even breathing.

I saw him sing at Broadway Under the Stars in June... I think his wife also had a baby recently, so I'm sure he's busy with that. I can't wait to see him in a show again.

I just watched Broadway's Lost Treasures II. I really think Bebe is really cool. I forget, what is she doing now?
and yes, he is now a father, they said during an interview through BLT2.

He was so great in Man of La Mancha! I think he deserved the Tony for that and/or Ragtime (and I'm glad he got it for Kiss Me Kate!)

Whoops! Feinstein's at the Regency jumped the gun: Contrary to an announcement that's still on its Web site, Brian Stokes Mitchell is NOT opening there on Sept. 21. Scheduling conflict.
