CABARET
The year 1966, the event - the new Kander and Ebb musical "Cabaret" - the
stars Jill Haworth, Bert Convy in the leads - the supporting cast Joel
Gray, an unknown, Jack Gilford, a veteran actor of stage and screen, and
Lotte Lenya, the brilliant interpreter of her husband Kurt Weill's songs,
taking a chance on stage. The supporting cast not only stole the show, the
minor role of the M.C., played by Joel Gray stole the show, as did the
performances by Lenya and Gilford. The stars faded into oblivion. The
musical won Tony awards for costumes, Joel Gray, Kander and Ebb, set
designer, supporting actress Lotte Lenya, director Harold Prince and
choreography.

Years later the new Cabaret which we saw last evening at the Princess of
Wales, is a brilliant new recreation of the original, and again the leads
Joely Fisher (daughter of Edddy Fisher and Connie Stevens), and Rick
Holmes, fade into the background and the M.C. Norbert Leo Butz is the STAR.
His performance is sinister, sexual, and once again steals the show. This
new Cabaret not only uses the original score and songs, but incorporates
some of the glitzy Liza Minnelli songs that Kander and Ebb wrote for the
film. This version is not the glamorous film, but a seedy recreation of
what Berlin was to the eyes of the creator, Christopher Isherwood, the gay
author whose Berlin Stories became the script for the straight play "I Am a
Camera," which brought fame to Julie Harris, both on stage and screen. That
play also tended to glamorize the period, rather than show the horrors of
the impending Nazi regime, which the new Cabaret shows only too well. It is
a great show, much better than the original as far as script, settings,
costumes. If this version could have had Joel Gray, Lotte Lenya and Jack
Gilford, it would have been one of the greatest musicals of all time.
Unfortunately both Lotte Lenya and Jack Gilford are no longer with us, and
Joel Gray did recreate his role for a short period in New York.

This version was brought about by New York's Roundabout Theater Company, an
off-Broadway house now in its 32nd season (located on Broadway). They have
won many Tony Awards for their productions, including Joe Egg, Anna
Christie, She Loves Me as well as the new Cabaret which won a Tony award
for best revival of a musical, as well as the Outer Critics' Circle Award,
and Drama Desk award. This company has received 51 Tony nominations, 49
Drama Desk nominations and 51 Outer Critics' Circle awards. Not bad for a
150 seat theatre in a converted supermarket basement.

Since we had to cancel our trip to London due to my partner's surgery for
bladder cancer, local theatre will have to do until he is able to travel to
New York once again.

COMPOSERS AND LYRICISTS - RICHARD RODGERS AND OSCAR HAMMERSTEIN II
Richard (Charles) Rodgers (1902-1979) was one of the greatest American
theatrical composers. He was born in New York and educated at Columbia. He
worked with three major lyricists throughout his life. The first was Lorenz
Hart on such shows as Poor Little Rich Girl (1920), Garrick Gaieties
(1925); Dearest Enemy (1925), Garrick Gaieties (1926), The Girl Friend
(1926), A Connecticut Yankee (1927), Present Arms (1928), Spring is Here
(1929), Simple Simon (1930), Jumbo (1932), On Your Toes (1936), Babes in
Arms (1937), I'd Rather Be Right (1937), I Married an Angel (1938), The
Boys From Syracuse (1938) and Pal Joey (1940).
After breaking with Hart he joined up with Oscar Hammerstein, and the
field of the light musical was left behind, and their first show together
was Oklahoma (1943) which revolutionized musical theatre. It's success was
followed by Carousel (1945), South Pacific (1949), The King and I (1951)
and The Sound of Music (1959). After Hammerstein's death, Rodgers luck
changed and the hits became misses with No Strings (1962), and Mr. President.

MEMORIES - MY YEARS OF THEATREGOING 1955-1999 - Part 3
(1958/1959/1960-the opening of The O'Keefe Centre for the Performing Arts)
In the summer of 1958 I took a bus tour of the United States, with a group
of teachers, but with someone with my theatre interests, although it was
spectacular, the culture side suffered considerably. We would spend three
days in Redwood State Park and one day in San Francisco, almost a week at
the Grand Canyon, and a couple days in Los Angeles. So during the two
months I only got to see two live performances, My Fair Lady in San
Francisco and West Side Story in Los Angeles. This was when West Side Story
couldn't catch on with the public and went on tour, later to be acclaimed
not only by the critics but the public alike. I got to see Larry Kert and
Carol Lawrence, with a brilliant score by Leonard Bernstein and lyrics by
the great Stephen Sondheim, sets by Oliver Smith and directed and
choreographed by Jerome Robbins. What an array of talents for one show.
In 1959 I flew to New York for the first time. We did the usual tourist
things, and then on to the bright lights of Broadway where we saw Raisin in
the Sun, with Ruby Dee, Ossie Davis, Sidney Poitier, Diana Sands, Claudia
McNeil, Louis Gossett Jr., Lonne Elder III and Douglas Turner (Ward),and
winner of the Drama Critics Circle Award for best play; Carol Burnett in
Once Upon a Mattress, music by Mary Rodgers (daughter of Richard), with Joe
Bova, Jane White and Jack Gilford, directed by George Abbott and
choreographed by Joe Layton; and Leave It to Jane with Geoge Segal and
Kathleen Murray. This short weekend trip gave me a taste of what Broadway
was all about.
During the summers in Toronto we had the Canadian National Exhibition,
with elaborate grandstand shows, with talents like Paul Anka, Kim Carnes,
New Christie Minstrels, Mormon Tabernacle Choir, Smothers Brothers, Ian and
Sylvia Tyson, Danny Kaye, Senor Wences, Marilyn Bell, Roy Rogers, Gene
Autry, Tony Bennett and Edie Adams doing her impersonation of Marilyn
Monroe at the Automotive Building.
In 1960 the O'Keefe Centre for the Performing Arts opened with a
pre-Broadway production of Camelot by Lerner and Loewe, sets by Oliver
Smith, staging by Moss Hart, starring Richard Burton, Julie Andrews, Robert
Goulet, John Cullum, Bruce Yarnell, Robert Coote, Roddy McDowall, Michael
Kermoyan, and M'el Dowd, and I had to be there Opening Night, which ran
almost four hours. In the audience were Agnes DeMille, Carol Channing,
Marge and Gower Champion, Oliver Smith, Vincent Sardi (from Sardis, New
York), Stanley Holloway, Jand Morgan and Alfred Drake. This was more like a
New York opening, but now with the International Film Festival, celebrity
galas are more commonplace, and even more so now that we have become
Hollywwod North.

Also in 1960 I got to New York four times, so I got to see Irving
Berlin's Mr. President, with Robert Ryan and Nanette Fabray and Anita
Gillette; William Gibson's The Miracle Worker with Anne Bancroft and Patty
Duke, Rodger's and Hammerstein's The Sound of Music with Mary Martin, Peter
Shaffer's Five Finger Exercise with Jessica Tandy, Katharine Dunham Dance
Company; Lillian Hellman's Toys in the Attic with a star cast of Maureen
Stapleton, Jason Robards Jr., Anne Revere, and Irene Worth, A Thurber
Carnival with Tom Ewell, Alice Ghostley, Paul Ford and Peggy Cass; a
musical by Frank Loesser Greenwillow with Anthony Perkins in his first
singing role; Come On Strong with Carroll Baker and Van Johnson; Little
Mary Sunshine with Marian Mercer; Bye Bye Birdie directed by Gower Champion
with Dick Van Dyke, Chita Rivera, Paul Lynde, Dick Gautier, Michael J.
Pollard, Kay Medford, Susan Watson and Charles Nelson Reilly; Duel of
Angels with Vivian Leigh and Mary Ure with costumes by Christian Dior; La
Plume De Ma Tante; Jean Genet's The Balcony, an inspired production that
almost single handedly put Off-Broadway on the map, with Nancy Marchand,
Sylvia Miles and Salome Jens.
We were also privileged to see the opening of The Fantasticks, which is
still running at the same Sullivan Street Playhouse, with Jerry Orbach,
Rita Gardiner and Kenneth Nelson.
Other shows included Irma La Douce with Clive Revell, Elizabeth Seal,
Fred Gwynne, Elliott Gould, George S. Irving and Keith Michel,
choreographed by Onna White; A Taste of Honey, directed by Tony Richardson
with Angela Lansbury, Joan Plowright; The Unsinkable Molly Brown carried by
Tammy Grimes and Harve Presnell; Sidney Kingsley's Night Life with Carol
Lawrence and Harold Arlen's House of Flowers based on the book by Truman
Capote, with Peal Bailey.
I also saw Cheri with Horst Bucholz, C.P. Snow's The Affair; Celebration
by the creators of The Fantasticks; Dinner at Eight; The Investigation and
Little Me with Sid Caesar doing the many roles; and the musical Oh Kay.

DANCERS/CHOREOGRAPHER - GRACIELA DANIELE
Ms. Daniele's first Broadway show was Here's Where I Belong, which I was
fortunate enough to be in attendance as it only lasted a very few
performances. I loved the show, the score and of course her design. It
starred Anthony Perkins in his only singing role. She also did Most Happy
Fella, Promises Promises, The Rink and her latest Ragtime.
