Sweeney Hyde

I saw him in a east coast-near west tour of My Fair Lady. He was Higgins. Vickery is just amazing. He and the Colonel really made the show...the Eliza was a little too old and her accent was less than fantastic. Fantastic actor. My father caught him during intermission and had a quick chat with him. He was sitting on a fire hydrant and was smoking.
My Playbill reads of him: Originated the role of Scar in the Broadway production of The Lion King and subsequently played the part in the Los Angeles production for two years.
