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 |
