Tough Guy
It’s always good to have a niche. If you’re Mel Ulrich, that niche is “operatic baritone with shaved head, who looks great with his shirt off”.
I saw him last year as Stanley Kowalski in Streetcar Named Desire, and tonight as Joseph de Rocher in Dead Man Walking. He’s a fine singer and a good actor, but with his particular mix of qualifications, he is … umh … without competition.
