As previously reported by BroadwayWorld, Broadway veteran Jeff Conaway slipped into a drug-induced coma on May 11th. According to USA Today, the actor passed away this morning after his family decided to take him off of life-support. He was 60 years old.

Jeff Conaway made his Broadway debut in 1960 in ALL THE WAY HOME. He also appeared in GREASE on Broadway as Danny Zuko, the role that would later be made famous by John Travolta on the big screen. Conaway made his final appearance on Broadway in 1985's THE NEWS. He's arguably best known, however, for his roles on film: Kenickie in the film version of GREASE and Bobby Wheeler in the television series Taxi.

Kristin Chenoweth is one of Broadway's biggest standout exports since Barbra Streisand. It used to be that Broadway actors would go to LA for pilot season and very often come home empty handed. Ever since her first appearance on Broadway in STEEL PIER, the Kander & Ebb musical, directed by Scott Ellis with choreography by Susan Stroman, the girl hasn't stopped. It was WICKED that threw her fully into the mainstream and she didn't even win the Tony that year.
