This is a 2006 A Chorus Line that looks pro shot, maybe it was for a special, it doesn't explain the provenance.
Not the best quality but damn, it's Angela Lansbury and Len Cariou in Sweeney Todd!
Bernie Petie (our name for Bernadette Peters) took over from Bette in Hello Dolly, no idea how this got recorded so well.
One of our favorite dames, still miss her to pieces. We drank SO MUCH vodka together! Elaine Stritch At Liberty, recorded at the Old Vic for PBS. What was funny at Opening Night was we got toasted before and then, during the show, she got into how she had STOPPED DRINKING! We were pissed and told her so afterward

This is our FAVORITE version of Stritch's Ladies Who Lunch, we still want to jump and applaud after. Gosh. What a brilliant artist. And it's the question for Foggy... "Does anybody... still wear... a hat?"

Dang, this is Chess - Original Broadway Cast June 25, 1988 (Final Show). "One Night In Bangkok" is from this show.
Everybody knows Fiddler, but this is really rare, it's The World of Sholom Aleichem with Zero Mostel, Nancy Walker, Gertrude Berg, Charlotte Rae
Here's a mind blower for us, Chita and Liza in Kander & Ebb's The Rink. Worked for both girls, when Chita was here in Florida with Tommy Tune a few years back we had a wonderful reunion and time together. This was never a great show, but the girls worked the hell out of it. Jason Alexander, Scott Ellis and Rob Marshall were also in it. The backstage fun at this show was one of the very best.
This is incredible. This is the ORIGINAL CAST of Dreamgirls, somebody enhanced the video and sound. So many memories! Henry Kreiger was my mentor and I had several clients in the show on Broadway and the tour so must have seen it over a hundred times. The only show I've seen more is Chicago, had clients in it for over 15 years. Jennifer taught me that McDonald's had huge handle bags, never knew that! The amount she could eat between shows was revolutionary for me, an entire bucket of KFC and then another huge show a couple of hours later. We had the best time.
One play to toss in, in 1982 a young guy created a three act play and it broke so many rules and was a show we saw over and over. It was at the Little Theatre, which was renamed the Helen Hayes during the run. Matthew Broderick was in it and we started a life long friendship. The author and star? Harvey Fierstein. Just posted a month ago, here's the last 10 minutes of Torch Song Trilogy. (This isn't with Estelle Getty from Golden Girls who originated the role when first saw it, Chevi went in later.) Have begged Harvey to release the whole show.
Here's dear Angela Lansbury recording "Be Our Guest". Thanks for letting me share some of these with you!
