JDR was fortunate to be able to speak at length with actor Keith Buterbaugh, original cast member of last year's Tony Award winning Sondheim musical COMPANY. Now he's playing nasty old Judge Turpin and talks to JDR about Sondheim, Sweeney Todd, Johnny and how a "nice guy" actor becomes creepy Judge Turpin!

Karen, that's fantastic---oh I can't wait! :bow

Oooh. Exciting.

A quick search shows the following:
Looks like he's done Sondheims's "Passion" before as well.
A true "Phantom" also !

I'm glad he's survived Sweeny to tell the tale!

Did he have one of the 'dead bodies' the vegetarian extra saw laying around? If so, that must have been quite freaky.

This is exciting, Thanks Karen, I can't wait to read what he has to say. woohoo

That should be really interesting, Karen! Looking forward to hearing his perspective!

:snoopy I really look forward to this. Thanks :snoopy :) Anne r

COOL! I'm looking forward to reading that interview, Karen!

I'd like to think some of my clients will be able to see ST, as it is running in Boston right now.
The Cape Cod Times had a nice review today.

I hope so too Arnelle! Any chance you can see it?

He's an interesting guy, and loves Sondheim, this is his third Sondheim musical.

woohoo He was so good in Company on Broadway. I'm looking forward to hearing what he has to say about ST. I've been looking longingly to the Boston performances, the only place on the current tour anywhere near me, but it's not to be. :(

Yes he's done Sondheim's Passion and Company...and played the Phantom and Raoul on Broadway.


LOL This is the musical stage play that's just on tour now, I think you are talking about something from the film with the vegetarian butcher. ;)

Oh Fan! So glad that you got to see him in the Broadway version of Company!! Sorry you can't make it to Boston!

Can't wait for this. I'm still hoping to see ST when the play comes to Cincinnati.

Nicci :angel

Once again, Karen gets only the best for us here at JDR! I can't wait!

Oh, how exciting!! I'll be looking forward to this. woohoo

Fingers crossed that you can see it!!

woohoo WOO HOO Karen woohoo

Thanks for lining this up for us. :thanks
