It'll be worth it for "Step To The Rear" from DOW JONES. It's hilarious, and Tony Roberts looks about 18 and rather hot.

Ken Mandelbaum keeps baiting me with the promise of footage of No No Nanette w/Ruby Keeler , Helen Gallagher and Bobby Van, on each new one, but it would seem I'm not getting it again. Damn!

I'm also excited about Dow Jones. Step to the Rear is a wonderful song and I've always wanted to see it. I wonder if that show could be revised for revival. It does have a great score. A man can dream, right?

I wish someone would release the American Dance Machine special from the late 70s. That had some wonderful routines including "You Can Dance With Any Girl", the Clog Dance from WALKING HAPPY, Susan's dance from FINIAN'S RAINBOW, de Mille's "June Is Bustin' Out All Over". It's drenched with historical goodies!

Bump.

P.S. I can't wait for that! I wonder if the Bonus Performances on the DVD will be shows that I've actually heard of this time! lol I know that I've heard of Joseph on the last DVD, but not of everything else.

I wonder who's "I'm Flying" we'll get -- Rigby, Duncan or Charlotte D'Amboise from JEROME ROBBINS BROADWAY. I hope it's Duncan's....

I'm hoping for Sandy Duncan's too!!

Wow!! This is exciting - we were just discussing a wishlist yesterday.

But still - I feel this is fake. RAGTIME? INTO THE WOODS? Love them to death - but too contemporary to be a "Lost" Treasure.

"The Spectacle has, indeed, an emotional attraction of its own, but, of all the parts, it is the least artistic, and connected least with the art of poetry. For the power of Tragedy, we may be sure, is felt even apart from representation and actors. Besides, the production of spectacular effects depends more on the art of the stage machinist than on that of the poet."

Last night after the Tony's, BWW wasn't working for me, so I visited Broadwaystars.com and buried away in a "Tony Scrapbook" type of thing, I found this at the bottom.
I looked on Amazon and the distributor's (Acorn Media) site, and saw nothing, which I found odd.
Nonetheless, I just pasted the image from that site.

I really wish they would release "And I'm Telling You." It was supposed to be in the first edition.

The "Nanette" sequence is good, but not nearly as effective as it is in the theatre. Van and Gallagher seem a little uncomfortable during "You Can Dance With Any Girl" and I don't think they used all of the tap dancers for "I Want to Be Happy". Since there's no set, you don't have that crazy moment where like 25 dancers come rushing in from all directions of the house to dance witb Ruby Keeler. Still, Donald Sadler's work is sublime.

"Step to the Rear" is pretty phenomenal by the way. There's a hilarious bit with those five crazy ladies doing "Washington upon the Delaware" that cracks me up every time.

But I must ask... Where the hell is "Vodka"?!?!

These are performances culled from the Tony Awards. Carrie wasn't nominated for anything and didn't perform.
