  • who wrote the song?

  • Otto Harbach and Oscar Hammerstein wrote the words and George Gershwin and Herbert Stothart wrote the music. Not sure why it took four of them to write it...

  • What was this, early 80's? I have remembered this number vividly for all these years. Such a treat to finally see it again. Thanks so much for sharing! She was such an amazing talent and we are poorer without her.

  • It was from the 1983 Tony Awards. There were so few musicals that year that they schedule a Gershwin tribute. This obscure Gershwin song was part of the tribute.

  • I love when she tells her boa to wait in the car.

  • @mitchellivers the more the merrier! Sometimes I think working together on a project is underrated!

  • Talking about the one and only--Ms. Loudon. Thanks for posting this.

  • I like when she says, "I;m too good for this room."

  • Ahaha, love how they just throw "War and Peace!" into there.

  • "It makes me CRAZY!" Sooooo funny!

  • does anyone know if this version is to be found on CD.

    thanks

  • Wow, like many other posters here, I also remember this first being performed. She stole the show as far as I'm concerned. I can't remember another thing from that broadcast, but her hilarious performance has been in the back of my mind ever since, so it's great to see it again and remember just how it went. THANK you for posting!

  • I saw this on the Tony's back in the day when they showed them on British TV - never forgot it. This is why YouTube exists. God bless you Dorothy and thanks for touching my life.

  • OMG, I have NEVER forgotten this performance, and I'm so happy to find this video!! Thank you!!!!!!!!!

  • This lifts the mood... '83 (?) Tony's... Gershwin Medley... What a pro!
