That’s my Broadway boy
May 13, 2009Sara and I have always been theater fans. For the first few years of Besh’s life we had more babysitters in New York City than we did back home. Even today Besh has seen more Broadway shows (2) than he’s seen movies in a non-home theater (1). One of the DVDs Besh likes to watch is a compilation of old televised Tony awards shows. It includes some scenes from the original production of Chicago.
Today, while Sara was driving Besh to his Dinoland field trip and listening to Sirius’ On Broadway channel, the song from the DVD (“All I Care About is Love”) comes on. In the opening lines, with the background singers moaning “We…want…Billllllllly…B…I…double L Y,” Besh proudble proclaims:
“Jerry Orbach is in this show!”
Skips the song, skips the show, goes right for the talent. That’s my boy.
that means you’re coming to the city soon, right???
