Not to threadjack, but, after "Can-Can", did Gwen ever dance anyone else's choreography besides Bob Fosse's?

This could be Fosse, a la "I'm a Brass Band," but it doesn't really seem erotic enough to be Fosse.

Gillian Lynne was the choreographer of the OBC. Yeah, Gwen w/o Fosse is like.......

This is not the Gillian Lynne staging froim Roar of the Greasepaint. It's special staging just for Gwen's Sullivan appearance.

It screams, you've seen one you've seen 'em all Fosse, to me. Regardless, Gwen is perfection. I wish she had allowed herself to be choreographed by someone else, in the 60s and 70s.
