Emily, there is a stage version of Bugsy Malone that has been running within the
past year, so there MIGHT have been one in the past Lee MIGHT have appeared in.
He was not in the movie credits, and the only link I could come up with on a
search function between Lee and Bugsy is your message. Fat Sam was played in
the movie by John Cassisi, and that's the only character with a "Fat" anywhere
in his name. Color me skeptical at the moment, but Kevin stands by for further
developments.
