Long as I live, my most cherished theater memory will be the 6 times I saw Gwen Verdon and Chita Rivera do this number in the original. It was an honor I will never forget. Lenora Nemetz was the understudy for both of them and she was pretty swell too.
What's with Ann's voice when she's singing this show? It's like an imitation of Gwen Verdon. I think her own beautiful, smoky voice (like in "Annie") would do the part perfect justice. This voice she's using here seems contrived. But hey, what do I know? :) Still a great talent.

No, it is a singig technic that is very common from Broadway singers. Probably you should hera FOSSE, then you will understand what that means.

"20 years ago". meaning that was when she did the original Chicago.

I agree, but keep in mind that this is about 15 years later, and voices change.
