| Last I saw him onstage was Lady Be Good in 2015 at Encores. Not long after that, I saw him at the bar at Sardi’s. He’s been connected to workshops of new musicals now amc then, one of them about Studio 54. He also directed a new musical starring Jeff Daniels and Rachel York in Chicago in … 2010? | |

| Oh wow, TURN OF THE CENTURY! Haven't thought of that show since I saw it (2008). What I remember is a one-trick show--What if you could go back in time and pretend to 'write' all the greatest songs of the 20th Century?--that didn't go anywhere. All I remember is Rachel York coming up from the floor in a Merrick Red Dress--complete with headdress!--singing Alexander's Ragtime Band that made me think she'd be a great Dolly Levi. Looks like did play it the following year, 2009, in summer stock. Would love to get the chance to see her do it again! | |

| In 2018 Tommy performed (with Chita Rivera) in the one-night-only 100th Anniversary Gala at The Muny in St Louis. They sang and danced "Rosie" from Bye Bye Birdie. For a look at the number, start at 3:55 in the YouTube video below. The rest of the video's 8 minute sampling of that gala performance is also rather wonderful. (If the link doesn't give you access to the video, on YouTube search "The Muny An evening With the Stars" https://youtu.be/e474iALMz4I |

| It’s not in a difficult range. So bizarre. | |
