It seems that everytime I go to FoWo (an abbreviation concocted by Mark P.) aka Ft. Worth, something will jog my memory. I guess if I still lived there and saw people on a regular basis, things wouldn't get pushed into the windmills of my mind.
My sister and brother-in-law met up with an high school mate of mine. Eugene lives in NYC and was in Ft. Worth to be the Musical Director for Annie...which jogged a memory.
I was first introduced to musical theatre at a very young age. The musical I saw was Hello Dolly! and I was hooked. (Explains quite a bit doesn't it?)
Sometime in the mid-to late 70's I went to see Godspell at Casa MaƱana. It was the first time I saw Godspell and it was the only time I saw Scott Jarvis perform. Scott played the role of Jesus and did an excellent job.
I have seen many productions of Godspell over the years but I never saw Scott Jarvis again and until yesterday I knew almost nothing about him. And I still know almost nothing about him.
I Googled Scott Jarvis yesterday and his obituary was in my list of results. Scott was in the original cast of 1776 and was also in Sugar and Here's Where I Belong. He had some television credits.
Scott died in March 1990 from AIDS. He was 48 years old and had no survivors. He does have a panel on the AIDS Quilt.
Sometimes I wish information wasn't so readily available. This is what curiousity will get you...sad news.
