JIM BAILEY as Tallulah Bankhead

[hotgritz4sho]

Jim is FIERCE! and OMG, that's Ms. Babcock from Laverne & Shirley!

[vampirehuntress1018]

I admit that you did very well with Tallulah. I'm a huge Tallulah fan and this was funny without making her seem like lush like V. Harper or some other horrible ones I've seen. Good job!!

[aeichler]

The great Betty Garrett plays Estelle Windwood.

[loulou2lou]

Tallulah lives!

[hayamatsuka]

LMAO I'm in stitches.

[broadjumper1]

This was friggin BRILLIANT!

[norfolk03]

Excellent! Love this, thanks so much!

[Bitchslap2051]

PRICELESS ! oh please I want to share this with all my friends ...we all need to laugh more and worry less. There's just too much tradgedy in the world..

[ZarahLean]

annesq: you know nothing about my personal likes and it seems you are ignorant about Miss Bankhead, too. Miss Bankhead, unlike the nobody Harper, was bawdy and proud of it.

[ZarahLean]

Bailey does Bankhead justice. How dare anti-porn Valerie Harper play pro sex Bankhead! Can George Bush play Adam Lambert? Harper is presenting a negative image of a great woman. One thing is for sure, 40 years from now no one will remember Harper.

[annesq]

Porn has nothing to do with Tallulah Bankhead. Don't use her to defend your personal likings. I doubt Ms. Bankhead spent much time watching porn . . . She didn't need to. I think Valarie Harper will do a fabulous job!

[drachirzimmer]

I saw Valerie as Tallulah after I wrote that. She was fantastic. If she took it to Broadway she would win the Tony.

[rigeuer]

Well, she is taking it to Broadway. Just announced today. I can't quite see Valerie Harper as Tallulah but I'll give her a try. Already did Tovah as Tallulah. The singing was amazing but only so so show. Always wondered what Helen Gallagher did with it. Good luck Valerie.

[WeekendinLondon]

wow - the voice is Tallulah!

[themaytagrepairman]

@WeekendinLondon The laugh is as well!

[geofree1984]

Does an adamant job with the voice!

[dan1911a]

Is this Betty Garrett the MGM film star in this show?

[darreyl102]

it looks like her

[Rocketjay12]

It is Betty Garret apparently playing Estelle Parsons. Good eye!

[knifecut]

awesome, and nice to see estelle present!!

[StephanAOTTO1]

Damn, he's good!

[ryartiste]

Incredible. I'm just getting to know Tallulah after knowing about her for years. I just watched a I Love Lucy clip, then this, and it's incredible.

It's possible to get the whole video of this play?

[drachirzim]

Valerie Harper is starring in a one woman show about Tallulah. It opens this week at the Pasadena Playhouse. I don't see her as Tallulah at all. Good luck dahling!

[DiabolicalAngel]

Im seeing Harper this weekend and Ive seen clips- the play looks reallllyyy good. She does a really good job with the voice. But so does Jim! :)

[burffle]

Jim is performing at Judy at The House of Blues in Hollywood Sunday June 29th!

[rockgor]

I read Tallulah was the toast of London in the 20s.

Jim Bailey does an amazing job.

[AdArmand]

I so admire Jim and am inspired by his incredible talent. A real artistry which deserves major recognition.

[LyndaHudson]

You are BRILLIANT,dahling!

[shortyd999]

He's great!!

[greenplaidshirt]

Brilliant ACTOR!

[gaygirlb4]

Excellent brilliant actor

[BROADWAYFAN887]

When it comes to men dressing as women hes the best ...period ....its not that hes a lookalike its because his acting is good.

[DivisiveOffering]

Wow, it's true. Not really a lookalike at all, but a REMARKABLE impressionist.

[DiabolicalAngel]

Actually i see the resemblance in some weird odd way. As Tallu got older she started to look a little mannish, so I think thats why. LOL

[sandysoy]

Id love to see this Iremember the LA Times gave Jim an excellent review.

[burffle]

I WAS THERE, thanks so much for refreshing my memory. Hey Mr. C. do you have the night Tallullah looked at Betty Garrett with her freshly broken leg in a cast & Tallullah said, "You know you really should do something with that."
