Sweet Charity 2005 Revival Changes. — Page 2

It really should be done by a dancer (i've seen Donna McKechnie in the 80s revival and while she got mixed reviews, I find her charming).

SonofRobbie, I think entering the stage on your ass STILL is impressive :P And yeah Big Spender is a classic example of Fosse's less is more movement--I've seen community productions which choreograph it absolutely frenetically, and it doesn't work.

A third and final point, connecting LITTLE ME and SWEET CHARITY, to Eric Montreal: I consulted my three coffee table books and finally found a large photo of "Rich Kids' Rag" from LITTLE ME juxtaposed with a photo of "Rich Man's Frug" from SWEET CHARITY. The book is Martin Gottfried's BROADWAY MUSICALS(1984 Edition) and the caption reads, "These are book- end dances by Fosse. Again featuring Fosse's knock-knees, angular movements, and thrust chins, the two dance numbers are Broadway classics."
