Bobby Steggert: Why He Left Acting Career

Good looking guy...

who?

I've seen his penis!

Up close and personal, r3?

On stage. Nothing remarkable.

I like this part:

[quote] Let’s face it — it is too late and the world is too far gone to celebrate art for art’s sake. It’s simply not enough anymore. We as a collective culture have forgotten what true greatness is, as the paradigm shifts and we are bombarded with the most toxic and pathetic expressions of selfishness masquerading as strength. But here’s the good news — all humans are outfitted with potential greatness, and yours far outstrips your craft. It is a superpower in this ever isolated and polarized world, and it is your responsibility to use it. Many of you already do.

[quote] [bold]The greatness I speak of is your bravery in offering authentic compassion in the flesh [/bold]— a space of physical, emotional, and ideological vulnerability that, though out of fashion in our current climate, is the only thing that can save us. Lots of people practice empathy, and every human is endowed with it, but fewer have the experience you have in using it so flexibly.

Lord he sounds exhausting.

Actors and chorus boys are a dime a dozen on Broadway. Bobby had some great roles in big productions, but there are hundreds if not thousands of other thirsty actors angling to take his place. His decision to give up acting and become a social worker sounds less a philanthropic move and more like he had reached his shelf life.

Bobby is different from a "chrous boy". He brings intelligence and warmth to his roles, and takes chances. His longterm support of the musical "YANK" is a good example. And one of my favorite performances.

R9 which is why I also referenced "actor"

Is he going into porn? It seems to be the new trend.

"Yank! A WWII Love Story"

Yank is where he gets naked onstage

I remember him from All My Children. I didn’t realize he’s now 37.
