Flashback Friday: Christian Borle Plays Shakespeare

This is our favorite of Borle’s roles.

Before Christian Borle was a vicious dentist and a weird chocolatier, he was good old reliable William Shakespeare in Something Rotten!, which ran for over 700 performances from 2015 to 2017. Check out this flashback of Borle, as Shakespeare, singing "Hard to Be the Bard" at the White House in front of Michelle Obama and the White House staff.
