| Any idea WHY Robert Morse was bumped up to Leading in ''Take Me Along,'' even though he's below the title? Was he considered such a big star at the time? (Granted, he made his Broadway debut a few years earlier in ''The Matchmaker'' and got a Featured Actor Tony nomination for ''Say, Darling,'' but I doubt he was at the same level of his ''Take Me Along'' co-stars Jackie Gleason and Walter Pidgeon.) When ''Take Me Along'' was revived in 1985, Knut Knudsen played Sid, the role that won Gleason the Tony, but Knudsen was put in Featured. It's so rare to have 3 performers from the same show nominated in the Leading category. ''Take Me Along'' might be the exception. Currently, 3 actors from ''The Inheritance'' are eligible for Leading Actor in a Play: Andrew Burnap, Samuel Levine and Kyle Soller. We'll have to wait until the Tony nominations come out to see if they all make the cut. |
