As an injoke, the Army also included CTC apprentice member Gary Costello in drag. A splendid tenor, he'd first come to the company a year before. Usually cast in singing roles, he also played one of Alice's Tweedles the following season & did his time stuffed in one of the cumbersome elephant suits of "Babar". He also would don a dress again as the Empress of China in "The Nightengale".
Members of the Army of Revolt included dancer Devi Piper, students Lori Williams, Sally Dworsky & statuesque Truda Stockenstrum. Performing intern Lily Vakili was the Lt. who echoed Jinjur's address and comedienne Suzi Petrri played Col. Cardamom. Julee Cruise (Jinjur) had first appeared in "Bartholomew Cubbins" a year before & was invited to join the company. She shined as chanteuese, Miss Lulu, in the jazz "Puss in Boots" & Alice's Queen of Hearts the next season (both filmed for HBO)
The Youtube screen greatly diminishes the spectacular Emerald City set seen on stage. "Good Morning" was overwhelming in live performance. The show's music incidentally was composed by Rich Dworsky (later of the Prairie Home Companion). It may also interest viewers at what a belter young Julee Cruise (Jinjur) was in light of her more famous David Lynch vocals a decade later. The Sawhorse's voice was supplied by teenage James McNee (who voiced the Gump & Mouse Queen). .
