OK, I just fell in love with Jim Stanek

I felt sorry for him in LESTAT. Not only is he trapped (though, one suspects, not for too much longer) in a bad musical, his character was largely resigned to the sidelines. INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE is about Louis, with Lestat as a supporting character - a villainous one at that. Of all the characters in the saga, I really thought it was Louis who got the shortest shrift in the musical.

like every other male in Lestat, he seems sexually ambiguous. A neutor. I wonder what casting a masculine character would have been like.

Ha. That video is hilarious. He should be on TV.

He really should! That wasn't scripted, was it? It feels like he's just improvising and having a ball. Adorable!

I saw Jim in Thoroughly Modern Millie and then Lestat. I was really surprised he didn't go to Broadway with TMM, so I was glad he at least got to with Lestat. He's adorable. :)

I watched that video too last night and fell in love with him. He's just adorable. Too bad he's trapped in that musical.

I remember 3hree Muskateers, as both he and Sutton were in it and had just finished Millie in La Jolla.
It was fun seeing him interact with the audience in the beginning and then being dragged onstage to start the show.

One of the most talented, nicest, funniest performers I've ever seen. He will talk to fans for hours if you let him just go...he's amazing. And absolutely HYSTERICAL...everything you see in those blogs is 100% Stanek, no scripts or anything.

That video certainly makes me want to see Lestat just to see him.

He's so funny! I am def. getting his autograph sunday!
...What happened next, was stranger still, a woman breathless and afraid, appeared out of the night, completely dressed in white. She had a secret she would tell, of one who had mistreated her. Her face and frightened gaze, my mind cannot erase...But then she ran from view. She looked so much like you...

That was uncalled for, but who am I too say?
I saw Jim in Damn Yankees when I was on vacation, and then again in Lestat. Very talented, I hope he gets to do Freddie in DRS because he would rock the role.

I didn't think it was uncalled for, but I am very confused...

Wow, I hadn't either. But FWIW, they're definitely not SF pix.

Exactly Lizzie. Obviously my first thought was if there were any Drew ones to be had.
And now back to Jim. :)
