YouTube has a few clips of ''Timbuktu,'' the African reworking of ''Kismet.'' It was festively costumed and ran for nearly 250 performances.

dbdgdb, maybe this'll refresh your memory: Kitt performing ''In the Beginning, Woman,'' a new song Forrest & Wright wrote for the show.

In all, ''Timbuktu'' got 4 Tony nominations, including one for Kitt, who toured with it. Has anyone ever revived this musical since then?
Link Eartha Kitt: ''In the Beginning, Woman'' from ''Timbuktu'' (on Labor Day Telethon, 1978, only days before it closed)
