I know there was a thread like this, but the BroadwayWorld search function suuuucks. So I just wanted to start a new one. 

What happened to Greg Jbara? Is he still around? On a show I don't watch?

He’s been on Blue Bloods for the past six years.

Love Greg Jbara on "Blue Bloods"! I want to know what happened to the original cast of "Jersey Boys", especially John Llyod Young. I know he's done some concert work, but why have only 2 of them done one other Broadway show since they finished their runs in Jersey Boys.

Most of the original cast of JERSEY BOYS now tour as The Midtown Men, performing music from that era.

Ah! Thank you, glad he's getting that TV $$$. I just know he was working a lot in NYC theater and then didn't hear about him. 

Yeah, the Jersey Boys cast is very strange.

Okay, who can tell me about Igors Gavon-- the original Ambrose Kemper?

 

He seemed to have disappeared after 1978.

I've always been curious to know what really happened to Tommy Tune's career.

That's an easy one.  He just got tired of the work and the aggravation, and made the choice to work on small, more personal projects (including his own club acts) when he wants to on his own schedule.  He certainly doesn't need the money --- he invested wisely and he's got quite the art collection.

BWW's search may suck, but can't Google answer these sorts of questions more easily?

Anyone know what Josh Strickland has been up to since 2006?

Josh Strickland reprised his Tarzan last year (May 2017) in Germany:

After Disney's TARZAN closed on Broadway in 2006, he's successfully played himself in various TV projects.

Didn't he leave the business and go back to Business school?

Saw her in a show with Billie Joe Armstrong musical at the Atlantic a few years ago. It was called something like These Paper Bullets, and it was a Much Ado About Nothing (I think) adaptation with the Beatles.

He also does voice acting on behalf of the anti-lgbtq organization Focus on the Family. It's why I'll never go see him in a show again.

Re: Josh Strickland:  It appears that he is still currently appearing in Tarzan in Germany.  He also was on Holly's World on E! as a regular, and had much success in Vegas reviews for a few years.

How about Ramona Keller? Such a powerful voice- would love to hear her again.

Interesting. I spent six years performing with the same theatre company that gave him his start, so I was always wondering what happened to him post-Tarzan. Thanks!

What happened to Martine Allard from The Tap Dance Kid?  She was like a young Jennifer Holliday

Re: Nicole Parker There are a couple episodes with her on Off Book: The Improvised Musical podcast. She still sounds great and is so funny! Would love to see her back on broadway.
