| He played it for five weeks or so in September-October 1976. Linking the replacements page for the role of Pippin. | |

| Came across a mention of that last night elsewhere. I'd guess that Tune played the Leading Player, although his performance personality seems a bit sunny for it. There's really nothing else he could have played. | |

| In the late 1960s, I saw Tune play a few different roles at the Milwaukee Melody Top, including the Emcee in CABARET. He could definitely go darker when the role required it. I can easily imagine him as the Leading Player -- a bit different than the interpretations we're accustomed to, but interesting in its own way. I would have liked to see that. | |
