"This divorce must be recent b/c we saw him at Wicked (at the stage door) with his children and wife (who appeared to be very pregnant) mid-May."

Are you sure it was his wife? Because many people saw him cozy with a girlfriend in early May.

JOHN LITHGOW I just realized, your last name is Butz! Both "Norbert" AND "Butz" are in your name! You must have gotten picked on a lot as a child!

Why does it bug you? I'm not familiar with any arguments about Norbert's sexuality, as this is the first time I was really encouraged to think about it... however, as a bisexual, I think it's important to acknowledge that the entire world doesn't fit into a dichotomy of "gay or straight."

Well, she was a pregnant woman holding the hand of his daughters (they look so much like him) and the daughter called her mommy. I do not know for sure, though.

Of course not. That's not what I meant at all, so please don't take offense! The idea pops up a lot in discussions about Raul Esparza. It bugs me because I'm not sure it's really right for us to be discussing such proclivities on a public forum. Unless they're open about it, that's private information, IMO.

It seems a silly discussion but if there's factual evidence, then the guys who fawn over him can at least rest assured that he's not *completely* inaccessible. Maybe some actors who seem to be in the closet are just not particularly vocal about their sexual orientation... which doesn't mean that they're not open, just that they only confirm when asked... and asking is what people here have been doing (hopefully not just for gossip's sake)...

Does anyone know what his next project is now that he's finished with Wicked?

Dirty Rotten Scoundrels with John Lithgow and his Last Five Years costar Sherie Rene Scott, I believe.

He's doing Dirty Rotten Scoundrels with John Lithgow and Sherie Rene Scott (L5Y Reunion!)in Cali and then it's coming to Broadway in March-ish. :)

Can we leave dear Norbz alone?! He's married and has kids! Tis all!

Gay, Straight, whatever, you can still find the person attractive.

Gay or straight, who cares? Isn't he supposed to be going to San Diego to stage some Shakespearian abortion some time soon? If so I say to Norbert don't let the door hit ya where the Good Lord split ya! Now beat it!
