Chicago Actors Are Very Professional

By Jerri Perry


Chicago actors are great people and they really know how to entertain an audience. These are very skilled individuals who have worked their way to the top while enduring many personal struggles. People are very familiar with Sean Hayes, Gillian Anderson, Dennis Franz, Fred Savage, Jim Belushi, Robin Williams, Dennis Farina and Barbara Bain.

Anyone around knows that Sean Hayes is one funny Illinois man who can laugh at himself and life itself. He never really takes things too seriously and many people respect him for that. The producers of "Will And Grace" knew that they had hired one talented person when he portrayed Jack on this show. Even though he was gay Sean never shared this information with other people.

He eventually talked to "The Advocate" and told his entire life story to them. Months before this coming out story happened Sean went on to star in a Broadway show. Unfortunately the critics wanted a straight man to portray the male lead instead of Sean. The show's leading lady wanted Sean to continue on in this event since she admired gay men.

Sean decided to shut everyone up by telling the truth about his sex life. From this point on he lives his life as a very happy gay male. Nowadays he has tried his hand at producing even though he played the main character on a show called "Sean Saves The World." The series was very funny but it just could not get an audience since Americans have no respect for gay people.

"Mork And Mindy" fans really like Illinois citizen Robin Williams and they will watch many movies which feature him within them. He enjoyed playing a space alien named Mork until 1982 when this show was cancelled. It really became outrageous towards the end when Jonathan Winters was cast as Mork's mature son. People could no take the silliness of this television program anymore.

Real life detectives are very intrigued with Illinois born Dennis Franz who gained recognition on "NYPD Blue." Mr. Franz loved to show off his large body to the fans during many episodes. He did not mind being nude if the script called for this request.

Former Illinois resident Jim Belushi wanted to do everything that his late brother John did. John and Jim both starred in "Saturday Night Live" which is aired on NBC in America. Jim also proved to be just as funny as John after some time had passed.

Barbara Bain is one proud person to be part of the Chicago actors list. She gained fame during the 60's when she portrayed Cinnamon Carter on "Mission Impossible." After leaving this series the producers could never find a good actress to replace Barbara. They tried to hire several women to fill Cinnamon's role but every person failed to gain the audience's attention. Barbara was also the only woman to star in this series which featured her husband Martin Landau. Her and Martin finally left the series due to money issues and they both starred in England's "Space 1999."
