  • As someone whose daughter is a nurse at Presbyterian and, as such, treats Corvid-19 patients on a daily basis I am gratified by the daily 7:00 pm cheering. My block has been getting an extra bonus. Broadway star Brian Stokes Mitchell (“Ragtime,” “Man of La Mancha,” “Kiss Me Kate.”) has been treating us to “The Impossible Dream.”

    The lyrics "To be willing to march into Hell for a heavenly cause" have special resonance these days.

      He makes me tear up most of the time I watch him on CZcams. I don’t see him on TV anymore. I hope he’ll be in another show soon.
      He’s spectacular!

    Wasn’t Brian Stokes Mitchell was on TV in the 80’s?

    • @rkiry
      @rkiry Před 4 lety +2

      Yes, he was on Trapper John MD. He played a minor supporting character, Dr. Justin "Jackpot" Jackson.

    • @janicelambright5256
      @janicelambright5256 Před 4 lety +1

      Yes. Trapper John. Tv Show.

      Brian also had a role in ‘Roots 2’ as a suitor to Debbie Morgan’s character, Elizabeth, who wanted to marry her!
      And something else about Brian! I think that when Broadway gets back on it’s feet again, somewhere down the road, he would make a glorious Horace Vandergelder to an equally glorious Queen Latifah as Dolly Levi in ‘Hello Dolly’! Which I saw as a 13 year old in ‘69 with the fabulous Pearl Bailey and Cab Calloway! I fell in love with them and I asked my father to get me that album, which he did! Thank you, Daddy!
      If you’ve never heard ‘Hello Dolly’ with Pearly Mae and Cab, you are missing something indeed!
      So let’s hear it for Queen and Brian! 😍😍😍😍😍

      He was also the voice of Danny Wood on the New Kids on the Block cartoon. I learned this via IMDB last week and was floored.
