To anyone who knew her - they know who I am. She is my best friend. A heart of PURE gold. I live on the same block. I walk by her building daily, and, it doesn't get any easier. I'm SO happy I have my memories. I miss her so much. Always, R.
Christopher Isherwood depicted Sally Bowles as a girl who couldn't really sing, but did so with gusto, not caring what people thought of her performance.
What an amazing performance at the age 0f 21, from the lovely English actress, Jill Haworth. Sadly she died in her New York apartment on Jan 2, 2011. RIP, dear Jill
omg, I LOVE this version. Im auditioning for sally in the fall, and I really hope we go with this arrangement, its amazing. I love jane horrocks, but oy, i thought shed burst a vein singing this song.
The stage version of Sally couldn't be more different from Liza's film version. While Liza's Sally was a jazzy, schmaltzy all-American "entertainer" through and through, the stage Sally is a much more tragic figure whose wry British sense of humour endears her to German night-clubbers even though she is far from being some kind of virtuoso singer. This is a woman with serious emotional scars, who tries desperately to move beyond a traumatic past, but ultimately fails as indicated in this song.
I positively *LOVE* Jill Hayworth's Sally - her voice and her acting are so distinctive, and totally unlike any of the subsequent Sallys who are either too dark or too flippant. I think Jill's Sally is somehow ALWAYS effortlessly *ENDEARING*, while simultaneously embodying the character's RAUNCHY, *EDGY* qualities without working hard to push it. Hayworth shoves neither Sally's trademark *CHARM* NOR her psychological *ISSUES* in your face, unlike most other Sallys who do one or the other.
Paul McCartney had an affair with Jill Haworth on February 1964 when The Beatles had a press conference in NYX and it's the first time Paul met Jill..
I actually saw the original Broadway production. By comparison, I found the movie to be a bitter disappointment. All subtlety was lost for the 'big sell'.
Liza blew me away. I was just a babe. The movie was far from subtle. Between that & Lady Sings the Blues, O & then Live & Let Die...
no wonder my barbie threw herself off a cliff...

The original and (in my opinion) only version.

Jill Haworth was absolutely perfect for the part.

I saw Jill play the role on Broadway. She was great. For my money she was better than Liza.
