Bette was definitely the best choice at this moment in time to play Dolly...but I saw Carol Channing "command the room" in Dolly too..and it was a love fest with the audience...gay icons weren't invented in tbe 70's you know..we had some before that 😉
Having watched the hello dolly game night on SITH, knowing that behind that curtain in harmonia gardens gavin, kate, taylor and beanie were playing cards and kate was "whispering" is hilarious
Great job! This also makes me wonder if there is an actual video recording of the show. I saw the original with Carol Channing and always wished they had filmed it. Perhaps a film version for Netflix or any other platform? Netflix, are you listening? :)
