I'm guessing, based on the size of her role, that she probably didn't spend much time with Merman. Merman wasn't big on socializing with the company, was she?
My question, based on the linked article, is if the creative team of GYPSY did, in fact, appropriate her already-created act for their show. If what she alleged was true, then she should have been credited for that and should have had a financial interest aside from her salary as a performer.
Were the actresses playing Tessie and Electra also real strippers hired for the show? |
