So what is it with Puccini and Broadway and Law and Order?
La Boheme =>Rent/Jesse L. Martin (whom I will gladly pay good money to watch read the phone book) => Law & Order
Madame Butterfly=> M.Butterfly/B.D. Wong (who doesn't have to even read the phone book, just stand there) => L&O: SVU
I am getting punchy. I need to stop reading IBDb.com/IMDb.com and check on the laundry.
Oh, of the seven other primary characters in the movie version of Rent, four of those actors have had guest shots on either L&O or SVU at some point in their careers: Anthony Rapp and Wilson J. Heredia were on SVO, and Tye Diggs (speaking of people who only have to stand there) and Tracie Thoms were on L&O. All but Thoms had been in the original Broadway cast.
I'm sure it has to do with the fact that all the L&O shows are shot in New York.
