David Huffman stopped by the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego to bring his castmates cookies. It was a gesture of goodwill since he was leaving the production a week early to start work on a TV miniseries. Unfortunately he didn't make it to the start of the series. He didn't even make it to that evening's performance at the Old Globe. Minutes after dropping off the cookies and leaving the theatre, David Huffman was dead.
