It turns out I saw Greg Jbara in a Broadway show 13 years before BETM.

In 1995 he played a featured role in "Victor/Victoria." The show played at the Marquis Theatre, and starred Julie Andrews in the same role she played in the movie. If you've never seen the show or the movie, Julie Andrews plays a woman pretending to be a man impersonating a woman. She gets a job performing in a La Cage style nightclub in Paris.

I recently found this recording on Youtube. This isn't a bootleg, it's an official recording. A performance was filmed to be televised in Japan. The picture is a bit grainy on a big TV but should be fine on a computer.

BETM fans should watch for a very young looking Greg. He plays a low key role as the tough bodyguard of a gangster, but has a very interesting twist in Act II. ;)
