| Zan Charisse was my first Louise...I was young but remember being quite captivated by her she had a great presence and I liked her singing.. Fernanda Gordon played it opposite her real mother Rita Moreno....the only GYPSY I've seen starring an actual mother and daughter ..have there been others?(Carol Burnett and Carrie Hamilton almost did it at one point as well as Debbie Reynolds and Carrie Fisher ) This fact brought an extra layer of reality to the show... I think my favorite Louise was Jessica Boevers(now Bogart..her husband is Matt) who was in the Ravinia production with Patti...she was so good she nearly stole the show from Patti..never an easy thing to do |

| I didn't much care for her work in Forum and especially Oklahoma. I'm surprised to see she made such a strong impression. What did you like so much about her performance? | |

| I saw Sandra Church, Zan Charisse, and Susan Watson (at St. Louis Muni). I loved Natalie Wood in the film. But, for some reason, the one who sticks in my mind is Julienne Marie (the former Mrs. James Earl Jones) who replaced Sandra Church. | |

| What separates Marie from the others? Which aspects of Church and Charisse's performances stand out most clearly in your memory? | |

| Unfortunately, neither Church nor Charisse stood out for me. Watson was good until she became the stripper. Marie was adorably sweet then transformed into a sensual firestorm, as I recall. It was SO long ago.... | |
