Performers You Have Seen Mutiple Times (In Different Shows)

Posted: 11/1/11 at 3:10pm

I was rummaging through my Playbills of mine the other day and realized I actually had overlapped performers in different shows (It's bound to happen, but it took a bit for my synapses to connect around this fact).

In my case, it's:
Danny Burstein (South Pacific, Women On The Verge, and Follies)
Aaron Tveit (Next To Normal, Catch Me If You Can)
Jan Maxwell (Lend Me A Tenor, Follies)
Will Swenson (HAIR and Priscilla)
Nick Adams (La Cage Aux Folles and Priscilla)
Fred Applegate (Young Frankenstein and La Cage Aux Folles)
Beth Leavel (Young Frankenstein and Baby It's You)
Wallace Smith (American Idiot and Godspell)

What are your cases of seeing one performer in many different shows?

"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)
