Except for the fact that the writer thinks Dad is Irish, ( 
) the rest of the interview is good.

Re: Rich Hebert--Dad, US Tour
Surprisingly, not much has yet been said here about this amazing talent. At the shows I've seen all week, he has been one of the unexpected highlights. His emotional involvement in the role has been astonishing and hits me deep every time. He was the first one my brother mentioned as a highlight to him after his first show and my mother said the same after her first show last night. He is perfectly cast in this role in my opinion as an audience member who has felt every one of his performances this week.

Re: Rich Hebert--Dad, US Tour
I have praised Rich Hebert's in several posts - he plays the key role of Billy's dad so well that he IS Billy's dad. I have also seen several backstage videos in which he describes the pleasure he derives from working with four (previously five) different Billy's. At a post-show talk back he made it evident that he is also a dad figure to the boys and girls. He is a real treasure.
Re: Rich Hebert--Dad, US Tour
Somehow I missed your posts about him kport. 
I totally agree that he IS Billy's dad in this role.

Re: Rich Hebert--Dad, US Tour
In the interview Rich says the Tour is down to 3 Billys. The Tour website lists 4 Billys. Anybody know what is going on?
