| "All the names below are good ones and I bet many did come up in conversations... but I'm sure Hearn seemed like not only a safe choice, but someone they could in fact feel highly confident about. How right they were." The miracle is that arguably was singing it even better thirty years later! When he replaced Bryn Terfel I was knocked out how great he sounded! |

| Wasn't it more like 20 years later? But, yeah. I was stunned by how much better he was (both acting and singing) in the role all those years later. | |

| You're right! I can't believe that concert was 20 years ago! I was thinking "Maybe a decade ago.....". | |

| I vaguely remember from childhood he took over for someone who quit. Posters around the city had his name pasted over the original star. | |

| (see below) Wish I’d been around to see this one – big Anthony Shaffer fan, and I’d just started to go to the theater in time to see shows like Corpse, Accomplice, and Solitary Confinement... all enjoyable, but I missed the heyday of the Broadway comedy-thriller - Sleuth, Deathtrap, Whodunnit, and of course, Moose Murders! |

| I saw Deathtrap on a school field trip. I remember my teacher saying it was the only time she'd ever been to a play that was actually scary. It was. It was like going to a slasher film. People were screaming in shock and freight at times. It was interesting for me because I had seen a summer stock production with George Grizzard (odd that it was able to be done while it was still on Broadway.) Then we went on the field trip and saw Farely Granger but I knew where all the scares were coming. I miss the stage thriller. I wish they'd come back. |
