beyond being all currently dead?

Will: They don't give out awards for helping people be gay... unless you count the Tonys. "I guarantee that we'll have tough times. I guarantee that at some point one or both of us will want to get out. But I also guarantee that if I don't ask you to be mine, I'll regret it for the rest of my life..."

They are all dead but that is not the correct answer. Good guess & while you are techically right it is not the right answer for this puzzle. Keep trying

All three played the role of "King" in three different plays:

Robert Shaw - King Henry 8th - A Man for All Seasons
James Coco - King of Hearts - Alice in Wonderland
Yul Brynner - King of Siam - The King and I

TxTwoStep,

Your answer that "they are dead" made me laugh, because it reminded me of a very funny TV moment, when Norm on Cheers answered a question as a guest on TV's Jeopardy with a answer that would also be true here:

"Name three people who have never been in my kitchen?"

Mr. Roxy,

While I may be wrong, it will be interesting to see:

Is your correct question is as good as my incorrect but "true" answer that each played a "King" in three different plays?

What the 3 stars have in common is that they all starred in musicals that opened & closed on opening night

James Coco - Here's Where I Belong
Yul Brynner - Home, Sweet Homer
Robert Shaw - Gantry

Well that one was a clever question and answer.
