Debbie Allen's performance almost puts Chita AND Rita's versions on notice. .. her energized dancing and flawless adherence to the choreography is astounding!!
@ommyburgos@sarmadasco Both of you are both worng and right... While yes Priscilla Lopez originated the role on Broadway, in the movie she is played by Yamil Borges who in fact is Rosalina (the girl singing about how she wants to go back to Puerto Rico) in this cast. So yes, the movie version of Morales is in this video, but that's not Maria
I love this version. I remember watching it as a 10 year old. It's been the benchmark ever since.
