Robert Sean Leonard returns to his old stomping grounds and life on the stage
Robert Sean Leonard, dressed in a T-shirt and jeans, steps down from the wrap-around porch of his sprawling white Victorian home in suburban New Jersey, and greets his visitor with a big wave, a wide smile and a handshake as if greeting an old friend. The actor, best known for his role as the singular friend of the title character in TV’s long-running “House,” returned last year to his East Coast roots and to the stage. Down in the basement’s rec room, he checks on the laundry before sitting down on a well lived-in couch to talk about his latest stage project — playing King Arthur in a revised version of the musical “Camelot” at the Westport Country Playhouse Oct. 4-30. In 2003 he took a hiatus from the stage and headed west to look for television work “to earn some money,” as he candidly says, but one that was compatible with his plans on having a family with his wife, Gabriella Salick, a noted equestrian rider. When “House” and another series, “Falling Skies,” finished, he returned to the stage playing Atticus Finch in “To Kill a Mockingbird” in London and Henry Higgins at San Diego’s Old Globe before landing back last year in his hometown of Ridgewood, where it all began. A role as the Artful Dodger in “Oliver!” eventually led to the attention of a Manhattan casting agent and subsequent gigs off-Broadway, including the role of Jack in an early Playwrights Horizons workshop production of “Into the Woods.” Leonard bowed out of the musical’s next workshop when a movie offer came his way, “My Best Friend is a Vampire,” which was followed by “Dead Poets Society,” starring the late Robin Williams, and featuring Josh Charles and Ethan Hawke. [...] what matters now are the people in the rehearsal room and coming home after, making a cup of tea, looking at your wife and daughters and that’s your day.
