| I saw her in Plaza Suite on Broadway with George C. Scott and both actors were hilarious. Also, I recall when she performed with Liz Taylor in The Little Foxes at the L. A. Ahmanson Theater, the crowds came to see Liz on stage, but by final curtain time, it was Stapleton's performance that received the biggest ovation. It was well earned. Her performance of Birdie was so touching, so poignant. A great actress! I wish I had seen her in Simon's The Gingerbread Lady. |
