Actually, Jerry Herman said that he go the idea to bring Angela in because he had seen her in "Anyone Can Whistle" where she was glamorous.
Most people were typecasting her as older..
And I never read that he wrote "Mame" for Garland... although Garland was apparently interested in replacing Angela after she left.. but the producers knew that Garland was no longer reliable. |
