Betty White In Musicals?

Does anyone know anything about Betty White doing musicals?

I had no idea she performed in musicals until I watched this clip of "Password" from the original black and white series. She says that in Milwaukee she will be performing in "South Pacific"

Here is the link, she briefly speaks about it at 2.25

I had a programme of her as Dolly in Hello Dolly! with The Kenely Players on Ohio.

Wow! Could she sing?

Wow! Way to go Betty! And I didn't think I could have anymore respect for her, and I guess now I do!

Ditto fashionguru. Is there anything this woman cannot do? A truly amazing actress and person. An American icon who is STILL acting and going strong at, what, 87?

I saw Betty White as Mrs Anna in THE KING AND I 'way back when. I don't recall whether it was at the Westbury Music Fair or the Plumstead Playhouse. I DO recall that her King was Allen Ludden.

I once saw Edie Adams attempt to do a very dramatic Sadie Thompson in Rain for Kenley Players. Zsa Zsa Gabor did Private Lives for Kenley. And I saw a very, very pregnant Barbara Eden do Maria in the Sound of Music for Kenley. Her appearance in an Empire waistline wedding gown drew huge laughs -- reminiscent of Barbra in Funny Girl. With Kenley Players anything was possible. He would contact "stars" with midwest box office appeal and ask them what they wanted to do. Sometimes the results were wonderful. Sometimes the results were bizarre. Not every star has the best idea of what their own capabilities are. I guess Zsa Zsa felt she was right for Private Lives since it was about a woman getting remarried?
