Yes, originally he play Carmen Ghia, but later on he played Leo Bloom. It was after Matthew Broaderick and Nathan Lane left the show. Bart took over the role of Leo and Brad Oscar took over as Max.

To the high-schooler who flawlessly performed this at my camp's lip sync battle, you're a hero.
"It's been said , nay even sung..."
So, If were not for this continuous stream of motor impulses from the brain, we would COLLAPSE like a BUNCH! OF! BROCCOLI!

The brain!
There is nothing like the brain
Hearts and lungs are simply tinker toys

Insane!
I'm insane about the brain!
No invention in the universe
Is equal to the brain!
The mouth's a marvel
When it comes to eating,
I've nothing against the womb,
I thank the bladder
When I'm excreting,
And I always give the elbow room!
But the brain!
Please allow me to explain,

THANK YOU ✌🏻
What an incredible talent Rogert Bart is. Saw him in this role and also when he played Leo Bloom in The Producers. He was amazing in both shows.
Roger Bart didn't play Leo, he played Carmen Ghia. The original Broadway cast had Matthew Broderick as Leo.
Yes, originally he play Carmen Ghia, but later on he played Leo Bloom.
It was after Matthew Broaderick and Nathan Lane left the show. Bart took over the role of Leo and Brad Oscar took over as Max.
Roger Bart is an AMAZINGLY talented man! Everything he does is awesome!
