| During the Boston tryout of HER FIRST ROMAN, which I saw three times,the last scene was supposed to have Leslie Uggams loaded, via Cleopatra's carpet, via a crane,onto Caesar's ship. Each time(there was a similar scene in Act One) it took what seemed like forever to untie the carpet At the last time I saw the show, the curtain went up, down, up ,down, etc. Richard Kiley finally just waved good bye and Miss Uggams missed the curtain call |
