Before John Davidson settled into his most recent role as The Wizard in Wicked (at Philadelphia’s Academy of Music through August 4), he was an icon of variety entertainment, a role he’s held since making his debut on Broadway with Foxy in 1964. Since then, he’s been everything from a touring musical actor (name a show, he’s been in it), a consummate host (his own talk shows and guest host gigs for Johnny Carson and Mike Douglas), a nightclub entertainer, a Disney film star (The Happiest Millionaire; The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band) and a harbinger of reality television (That’s Incredible!). Mostly, he’s been John Davidson, the consummate, chiseled All-American Boy, who just happened to turn 71.
