I wish I could have seen David Cryer in 1776! Molasses to Rum is my favorite song, too.
I became aware of Cryer when he was Fermin in the PHANTOM tour that I followed for a while in the late 90's. I've since seen dozens of Fermin(s), and he is by far the standard! He added so much to that minor-ish role, but didn't overdo it, if you know what I mean. Cryer ended up in the Broadway production of POTO, and I was able to enjoy his performance as Fermin one last time. |
