He was excellent in Aspects of Love and Chess (both of which I saw in London)

I was sorry to read that.  In the late 1960's, I saw him with Judi Dench in "Cabaret" in London.  As a matter of coincidence, recently I bought the cast album from that production and listened to it a couple of days ago on my daily run.  A very good actor.

ASPECTS OF LOVE was freaking terrible, but Colson was much more charming and skillful than the role deserved. He did the part well enough, in fact, that I immediately felt sad when I heard the news.

Mr Colson was a lovely man and a very talented performer.  I have seen whole audiences relax thanks to his presence, and surrender to him, even in troubled shows.

Goodbye to a class act!

Sorry to hear about the news.

From the TONYs presentation of ASPECTS OF LOVE, with Kevin as Uncle George.

He was an admirable Ben Stone in the European premiere of Follies in Manchester in 1985.

He was wonderful, but Aspects of Love stands alone at my worst night ever on Broadway.
