Ben Vereen Like You May Not Have Seen Him

Here’s a photo of a very young Ben Vereen in a modern dance pose! This is from Go Down, Moses by Helen Tamiris. You’re probably used to seeing him more in musical theatre numbers! You know he won a Tony for Pippin in 1973 but did you know he was also nominated for a Tony for Jesus Christ Superstar the year before? He’s still working so check out his site: www.benvereen.com.

He has a youtube channel as well: 

We particularly ejoyed “Ben Vereen performing with Ann Margaret on The Rockettes Christmas Special.”
