All...

Haven't seen anyone post this yet. Just discovered that Graham Jarvis has
passed away....he was the Crim/Narrator for the 1974 Roxy production that led
to the film (and he's on that album) and I believe he also played at the 1975
Belasco production in NYC. He was 72. Here's a link to a story on him; you'll
also find a substantial entry at www.imdb.com

Rest in peace, Graham....

:-(

Truly a bummer. Jarvis was a fantastic character actor, and he's always been
one of my favourite recorded Narrators.

<< I believe he also played at the 1975
>Belasco production in NYC.

Every RH source that lists the Broadway cast always lists the Narrator as being
played by William Newman, so I always assumed Graham didn't move to Broadway,
but I recently purchased Playbill from the Belasco/Broadway show that lists him
in the cast as Narrator....maybe he didn't do the whole run, as short as it
was.

RIP G.J.
