Of all the Broadway Musical Plays ever done, 42nd Street will always be #1 with me. I loved this production so much that when the actress playing "Peggy Sawyer" the lead role, put a pair of her tap shoes on Ebay to raise money for charity, I had to have them. After staying up and going on a bidding war with someone else, I GOT THEM!! It is great to have a part of this great show
Only in New York do people in the subway corridors see a herd of sparkly tap dancers coming toward them in full synchronized step and barely look up or stop their conversations. God, I love New York!
@garylibra ...i think they were part of the act...the subway would have been closed to the public and they would have hired extras to act as "normal ppl"
What happened to the much longer version of this? Missing is the return of the dancers as they enter the lobby of the theater...and tape and dance their way through the lobby....down the aisles and pick up the "Girl In the Blue Dress" stage right (this is audience left)...she taps up the stairs and enters stage left earlier than we see in the shorter version.

This is phenomenal! Though the woman doing the dance with them kinda' freaks me out. The faces she makes at moments look psycho to me.

I saw 42nd Street in the early 1980's. Jerry Orbach was the lead. To this day, my favorite Broadway show and I have seen many.
