Trivia[]

  • During his time as a Swing, he covered eight tracks, including the 'big boy' tracks of Admetus, George, and Victor, but never went on for Macavity. Mark said that he was not tall enough, and (regarding the lifts in the Macavity fight) "not in this lifetime would I be even picking up Jack Rebaldi's eyelash let alone him!" If he was playing Admetus, the actor playing the George or Victor track would play Macavity instead. [x]
