    Let's see if this one is too easy, or a bit too abstruse ;)

    Good night Mrs. Calabash, wherever you are! @JimInOz got it right. Do you have shelf space for your Oscar? Here’s a star as well.

    55 years ago, I saw this stage personality in a stage play called “A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum”. And, no, it is not the person shown in the one clue.

    I’d like to think you might have to mull this one over, but I’m generally proven wrong. I’d like you to show me both the person, and their alter ego, and name both, or as many of the person’s other characters as you can. Pictures as well.

    OK, I'm looking for an obscure Canadian personality (?) I've never heard of who acted in a play I've never seen.

    The only thing I can offer is Arnold Shelby, but I suspect I'm heading in the wrong direction.

    Well, he’s not Canadian, but American. Now deceased. The words and lyrics for this show were by Stephen Sondheim. It was a story based on a book, and was on Broadway for a very long time. It was so popular that it was staged all over North America by touring companies, and probably the rest of the world as well. It was a movie, as well. I saw it in a stage play in Vancouver, B C. It was HUGE! Sorry you haven’t seen it. And, yes, the answer to the first clue is correct. Arnold, the pig, in Green Acres. The individual is NOT obscure, but not a so-called leading man, but a character actor. But Arnold the pig is not part of the answer. You are sooooo close. I’ll stop there. Hurry, or someone’ll beat you to the answer!

    This person was not in the movie, but he could well have been in the play,over its long run on Broadway. And he was in the groups that toured with the play.
