I too saw her in "All American," and I too was 12-years-old. She sang "Nightlife" which had the lyric:
Give me a moon
And a Cole Porter tune.
Those beguines don't begin to beguine
In the afternoon.
It was a pretty lame show, with Ray Bolger hogging the stage and mugging like crazy.
But Gillette and Eileen Herlie were terrific. |
