My Take
Kevin Chamberlin is a fascinating case of a performer who conquered two very different audiences. On Broadway he earned three Tony nominations, for roles like Uncle Fester in The Addams Family and the lead in Seussical, which marks him as a serious theatre actor. Then a whole generation of kids knows him purely as Bertram the butler on Disney's Jessie. I find that range admirable. It takes a particular kind of craft to command a Broadway house and also land big, broad comedy for children. That he trained at Rutgers and built his reputation on stage first, before the TV fame, says a lot about where his foundation really lies.
