My Take
Ken Page was one of those rare five-tool stage talents who could act, sing, dance, and command a room. Most listeners know him as the booming voice of Oogie Boogie, but his roots ran deep into Broadway, from the original Cats to Ain't Misbehavin', and a 1977 Theatre World Award confirmed his pedigree early. His passing in 2024 genuinely saddened me. What I value most is how a true theater artist leaves something permanent in recordings: that rich, unmistakable voice doesn't fade with rewatching. To me he's proof that stage craft, properly earned, echoes far beyond the footlights.
