Of cancer. Maybe you saw him in his many off-Broadway and Broadway roles.
Christopher Evan Welch RIP
"Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.”

Posted: 12/2/13 at 7:50pmWow, very surprising. Such a terrific actor. The best Mercutio I've ever seen (in the Shakespeare in the Park production a few years back). Also wonderful in Theresa Rebeck's play THE SCENE. A unique, memorable presence on stage. RIP
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."

Posted: 12/2/13 at 8:10pmOh how sad. His Mercutio was one of my favorites. He was the first one that I felt actually understood the death scene and played it with the realization of what hanging around Romeo cost him. There was anger mixed with bitterness mixed with regret in his death speech.
If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.
