Posted: 4/6/06 at 4:57pmWas Burtka in The Play About The Baby when it debuted at The Alley, or did he not join in until New York? The only thing I can remember about that run is when Earle Hyman had to bow out after fainting during a performance.

Posted: 4/6/06 at 5:00pmI seem to remember that they recast the play for New York after the Alley run.

Posted: 4/6/06 at 5:15pmAh, I looked it up. Burtka and Marian Seldes were indeed in The Alley's production. Kathleen Early and, of course, Brian Murray were not. I can't remember who replaced Hyman.

Posted: 4/13/06 at 11:26pmReally? He's dumb? I know he is lucky in his personal life. Is he nice?

Posted: 4/13/06 at 11:28pmI thought he was really good in Gypsy. He had that awkward young person vibe about him and also he worked very well with Tammy. His scene was a lot of fun.

Posted: 4/14/06 at 6:10pmyeah, no need to be mean. He's very sweet and extremely talented. I don't see him as being unintelligent whatsoever.

Posted: 4/14/06 at 6:23pmI wonder what he is doing lately. Seems like a while since he has been in anything.

He was on How I Met Your Mother on Monday.
Coincidence? I think not!

Posted: 5/3/06 at 12:44pmI wish this innuendo about David Burtka's love life would stop. This is not the National Enquirer.

Posted: 5/3/06 at 1:51pmI really liked him in Gypsy. I think he'd be pretty good as Fiyero.
