Why America Needs Chicago Actors

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.

Sean Hayes is a great entertainer who was born in Illinois some decades ago. He really gained the respect from many fans when he starred in the hit American sitcom "Will And Grace." For years this young man refused to tell people his sexual orientation to anyone within the film and television industry. Everyone around knew that he was gay but Mr. Hayes said nothing.

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 faced this hatred for quite sometime and this play was put to an end. The friendly male decided to admit his homosexuality to everyone after this event happened. No one really cared about his sexual preference which was a very good thing. Sean produced shows like "Hot In Cleveland" and "Hollywood Game Night" and he even starred in another television series.

There is one resident of Illinois who is funnier than anyone else that is around. His name is Robin Williams and fans everywhere know him as Mork from the planet Ork. He enjoyed his fame on the hit ABC television series "Mork And Mindy" before moving on to many movies. Robin did stand up comedy before entering into the television and film world.

Illinois is very proud that Dennis Franz is not afraid to show his naked behind on "NYPD Blue." He portrayed a very tough detective on this show for many years and the fans loved him. This is one man who really looks like a real life police officer. Many of the detectives on television today all look as if they stepped out of a fashion magazine.

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.

The great Barbara Bain is one of the many Chicago actors who has made an impact on this world. She first gained fame from the series "Mission Impossible." Barbara portrayed Cinnamon Carter who was the only female within this cast of very good looking men. She was also married to Martin Landau who had a major part in this show. After she left this show the producers could never find an actress quite elegant enough to take her place. Barbara and Martin went on to star in the United Kingdom series "Space 1999." This show was very exciting and colorful and it cost a fortune to produce each and every week.
