I couldn't agree more. In all the time I've known him, Jonathan's stayed true to his core: warm and embracing as always.
I once asked him to appear on our ''Leading Men'' concert for Broadway Cares. Knowing his obsession with Sutton Foster (and that he had told me that he'd seen ''Thoroughly Modern Millie'' six times), I asked him if he'd like to do ''Gimme, Gimme.'' Jonathan demurred; he said he couldn't possibly do that. Flash forward to 2012, and he's at ''Miscast,'' flawlessly re-creating Sutton's big tap number from ''Anything Goes.''
(By the way, Jonathan was a guest at Sutton's Lincoln Center concert in December; it's supposed to air on PBS this spring.)
