The cast of "Some Like It Hot" performed on 'The View' today, performing 'Good to Be Bad'. Not sure if it was live or pre-recorded, as Whoopi introduced the segment, but none of the hosts joined them after the performance to talk with the cast - I'm guessing it was a pre-recorded segment.
The performance was energetic, but not certain it was a performance which will bring the tourists watching at home to the box office this spring / summer. Whoopi did give everyone in the audience a pair of tickets, though.
The video clip should be available on their site later tonight.

I dislike when they pre-record these Broadway segments. I like it better when the hosts interact with the cast - sometimes the cast can sell the show more with information they give.

The song is also titled “Let’s Be Bad”. They’ve definitely done a few prerecorded performances in the past that included a prerecorded interview/spot with cast.

The song was forgettable to me, but the performance itself was good. They were really trying.

You really shouldn't be seeing the same show over and over. It is detrimental to your over-all well-being.

Not gonna lie, Ghee did not seem as energetic as I remembered on stage. Kevin del Aguila was the entire spark of the performance.
The View set also didn’t lend itself to such a grand number, with the staging seeming rather cramped.

DollyPop, I saw "Hello, Dolly!" 7 times. Should I not have?

Kevin del Aguila seemed to have taken lessons at the Nathan Lane school of acting, as he impersonated him so well in the performance on 'The View'. Again, not sure how many tickets they are going to sell to the home audience who watched this, and are planning to take a trip to Broadway in the coming months.

David10086, Kevin is wonderful in SLIT. He's absolutely charming and delightful. And, like you and I have discussed before, one can't get a complete sense of a show from a video or a Youtube. Are you going to NYC anytime soon? You should go and see the show.

David10086, it's a really good show. Go and see it. You don't strike me as the type of person who is more concerned with what other people think. Or what the "reviews" say. You'll be glad you saw it. You walk out of the theatre feeling great having just been wonderfully entertained for the past 2 & 1/2 hours.
