That is the same article (albeit a different publisher) that I posted on Friday. It must be a syndicated feature piece being picked up by various publications.

It is interesting that one has a photo, and the other does not.

Santino is mentioned in a great article from nj.com:

A very nice article about Santino in the New York Theater blog today entitled Santino Fontana’s Act One, The Unluckiest Lucky Actor in New York:

Act One, Stage Adaptation of Moss Hart's Theatrical Memoir, Opens tonight on Broadway, April 17

"Act One", and Santino in particular, received mostly positive reviews, including a glowing one in the New York Times. Ben Brantley wishes the Tony nominating committee would allow two actors to be nominated for the same role. Hmm, where have we seen that before?
