The actors certainly do have their own little parallels to the characters and the Four Seasons. It’s almost like the characters have been mentors, in some ways, to the actors. There is so much brilliance in the writing. The characters evolve as do the actors.

Bob’s character IS shy and reticent as Daniel points out; his confidence seems to come from his work and his instincts for excellence, rather than his own sense of himself- a tough nuance to portray, no doubt. The intertwining of the portrayed lives, as well as the off-stage lives, is one of the many unique qualities of this show.

Thanks to both of you- Susie and Daniel (and Dale, too, who had a chance to interject) for bringing this, and so much more, to light in this fascinating interview. And thank you to Daniel for loving what you do SO much- it really shows!

PS- Susie definitely wasn’t joking when she said she needs to hear “Cry for Me” each morning. Oh… and one more thing; thank you to Susie and Dale for loving what YOU do so much- that, too, REALLY shows!
