Im folgenden Bericht steht, wie er heute noch (bei der Tour durch Europa) langhaarig erscheint und immer noch am Stück herumfeilt:
. . .
We spent two weeks in rehearsal with Rado and Joe Donovan, the choreographer. There were trained Broadway actors and talented rock singers and me. Rado is an amazing guy. He must be in his sixties, but he looks young; could be forties, could be sixties. He has a youthful spirit, full of incredible energy. His hair’s about shoulder length, and everyone knows it’s a wig, but no one ever talks about it. And I never saw him take a drink.
Drugs? Well, we all made our own decisions about drugs. I think Rado used the idea of an altered state as meditation, as an acting style, his Method. He must have been a great actor. And directing, man, he would rewrite things, because he was still trying to get them right, 30 years later.
