An Actor's Bag of Tricks

An actor's stories of the funny and sometimes thrilling things that happen onstage. A joke, a story about Barney Martin, who played Jerry Seinfeld's father on SEINFELD, and lastly one about Hollywood legend, Donald O'Connor, and a rainstorm, and the magic of show business.

I just found out Tom passed away recently. He was an excellent actor. These videos are excellent.
