Norbert Leo Butz Question

I will probably get baned from the boards or something for asking this but I'm curious about something. Even though it's NONE of my buisness and he has the right to his privacy and all that, which I respect... I'm just curious if he is dating Michelle Federer and if they were dating when he was in Wicked. I didn't realize he'd gotten a divorce. He thanked her during his Drama Desk speech which is why I ask.

Again, if it's none of my biz, (a simple - "not ok" from someone is fine. it's all good, just wondering...)

No, he's divorced with kids. Last I heard he was dating Michelle Federer, but I don't know now.

Thats the rumor on this board. However, that says nothing to how TRUE it is! Haven't really paid much attention to it though. He can do whatever the hell he wants as long as he keeps up the good work in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels!

In addition to them spending lots of time together, in his drama desk speech he thanked Michelle and mentioned teaching him about wheelchairs. So that pretty much told me that yes, they are dating.

Norbert is divorced. He and Michell are dating. Check out the pics from the Outer Critics Circle awards. http://www.broadway.com/Gen/Buzz_Photo_Op.aspx?ci=513022

Under their picture it says "Wicked's Michelle Federer with her beau Norbert Leo Butz, who won for his performance in Dirty Rotten Scoundrels."

They are dating, but why do you care? It doesn't concern you or your life. This subject has been discussed TO DEATH on this board. Do a freaking search!

"I thought he was dating John Lithgow"

It was just announced that they will both be taking the summer off from DRS to do "Butley" together in Provincetown.
