A caricature of Rex Smith, currently part of The Scarlet Pimpernel's star triumvirate, will be added to the walls of Sardi's Jan. 20, 1999. The star will be on hand to sign the picture, which will hang alongside such old time greats as Leonard Bernstein, Henry Fonda and Milton Berle and new stars Deborah Gibson, Audra McDonald and Smith's co-star Douglas Sills. Smith made his Broadway debut as Danny Zuko in the original production of Grease. His other Broadway credits include Spangler in The Human Comedy, the Baron in Grand Hotel and Billy Crocker in Anything Goes. Smith won a Theatre World Award for his portrayal of Frederick in the Kevin Kline Pirates of Penzanze.
