A totally misguided musical. The dancers in the ballroom were Broadway professionals who were way too good and at the end, the audience could not feel for a woman who was committing adultery. And the role was too demanding vocally for Loudon.
I vaguely remember a movie from the late 70's called the "Queen of the Stardust Ballroom" with Maureen Stapleton.Was this the Broadway version of that movie?

Very cool. It was shot around Jamaica Avenue/Forest Parkway in the Woodhaven section of Queens.

"50 Percent" got me through a very tough time.
I swore that if I ever met Miss Loudon, I'd thank her. I never got the chance.
I'll thank her in my prayers tonight.:)

@TheReturnOfStephan What a sweet idea -- I'm sure God let her know.

Terrific commercial. I'm very impressed. It takes a lot of work for those few seconds to portray so much.
