It's a shame that the floor is hidden in this version when John Brascia appears. I remember seeing him morph right out of a section of the floor. Given the tech of the day, I don't even understand how they managed to do that!
@jdhobbes it's a trap door elevator they raised him through. You can see he comes out standing straight for a second before he leaps, b/c he can't leap through the hole, it'd be too narrow.
this is vera allen i think, poor thing she was going through such personal issues, but the show went on!

I cannot believe no one has commented in the infamous tapping feet that Vera pulls out. That is ridiculous. Show me someone who can do that nowadays.

@Bluerelic, I thought it was Martha Graham that they were spoofing more than Fosse.

Question: was this scene a subtle slight to Bob Fosse?

@jdhobbes A trampoline behind the stage, perhaps? My family puzzles about that too.
