This was a huge hit for Ms Bacall. Saw all her replacements.. Raquel Welch, Debbie Reynolds, and Barbara Eden on the road.

"It's my night, Sammy, all mine, Sammy -- so you can't give it your well known whammy!"

Saw 'em all, too. I actually thought Reynolds was the most accomplished.

Unfortunately I only saw the Eden tired tour. Although Marcia Lewis was great in the Cooper role.

Well Reynolds was the best dancer of all.. ( well.. the only dancer of all) but Bacall brought huge star power. I also always loved the way the orchestra sounded in that show. So rich and full.

Remember Tessie Cat?

This show has always been a guilty pleasure for me. A fabulous overture! Also posted is "Grass is Always Greener". What a showstopper!

The on "Grass is always greener" post I have seen is with Raquel Welch. Is there one with Bacall? And yes.. one of my favorite overtures ever. Also the first time I had ever been to the Palace theater.

And I loved Marilyn Cooper in this musical. Is she still the only one to win a Tony for one scene? Here is a display of her talent on the tv show Alice.

This number makes me cry those happy tears that come when you witness something magical on stage. Musical Comedy heaven.

I am a huge fan of The Fan. Those numbers are priceless kitsch. I saw in a single screen theatre when it first came out.

I have a lot of affection for " Woman Of The Year". What a great Kander and Ebb score of its time.
