He's also on the London cast recording of BYE BYE BIRDIE with Chita Rivera, if you're looking to celebrate his legacy + Lee Adams' 100th birthday.

I grew up watching him in Hollywood Squares. He was Georges when I first saw La Cage. RIP

Didn’t he play Billy Flynn in CHICAGO in the early 2000s ? Or am I mixing him up with another game show host from back then? It may have been on tour. So much stunt casting I can’t keep up!

I loved his quirky performance as the Captain of HMS Pinafore with Frankie Howerd.

According to ibdb.com, his only three Broadway appearances were in How To Make a Man, Skyscraper and La Cage Aux Folles. Maybe he did Chicago somewhere else?

Marshall never played Billy Flynn in CHICAGO. You’re probably confusing him with John O’Hurley or Jerry Springer but definitely not Wayne Brady - all who’ve hosted game shows.
