"Kaye was not ideally cast as Hattie in FOLLIES...the right role for her would have been Stella Deems belting Who's That Woman...but by then she wasn't up to doing that role."
I think Kaye was fine as Hattie and maybe could have been even better, but I heard she had been asked by the director and/or choreographer to tone down the comic business in the song, for some reason. As a result, I thought the performance was a little flat, but it was still great to see and hear her in the role. |
