Peters will be great, though I do hope she doesn't cry during "Before the Parade Passes By" -- I think it would be too much. If they reinstate "Love Is Only Love" from the film--originally written for "Mame" I believe, maybe that approach might work. She can be very funny -- I remember especially that she was a hoot in Mel Brooks' "Silent Movie" and on the Carol Burnett show. There have been many humorous touches in her many roles over the years, though she hasn't done that much out and out farcical comedy over the years.
