| The film's Hedy, Maureen Arthur, played the role on tour and was a Broadway replacement. To my knowledge, neither Anthony Teague (Frump) nor Kay Reynolds (Smitty) ever appeared in the show on Broadway or one of the national tours. So the film has Morse, Vallee, Sammy Smith, and Ruth Kobart from the original Broadway cast, and two replacements (Lee and Arthur). Jeff DeBenning, who replaced Rudy Vallee on Broadway late in the run and also played Biggley on the second and third national tours, was Gatch in the film. Otherwise, I don't know that anyone in the film was ever in the Broadway production or one of the three tours. Maybe a dancer or two. I don't know. | |
