He seems to be a very nice and knowledgeable person, when I listen to him in his Sunday radio show on Sirius XM on Broadway. I never knew he was an Elmo understudy. John Tartaglia
"Noel [Coward] and I were in Paris once. Adjoining rooms, of course. One night, I felt mischievous, so I knocked on Noel's door, and he asked, 'Who is it?' I lowered my voice and said 'Hotel detective. Have you got a gentleman in your room?' He answered, 'Just a minute, I'll ask him.'" (Beatrice Lillie)
Years ago, upon exiting the theater, Mr. Tartaglia was collecting for Equity Cares, Broadway Fights AIDS. In addition to making a donation, I told Mr. Tartaglia how much I enjoyed his performance. He gave me a hug. I really like him.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

He's working now in his show "Sunday Funday with John Tartaglia" on Sirius XM on Broadway. I'm listening to it now. Sigh, it's a song from the Julie Andrews recording of "The King and I" 1997.
