  1. By showing us a pic of Mike Nichols you've reminded me of one of my all-time fave comedy albums: An Evening with Mike Nichols and Elaine May.

    I know much of the dialogue by heart.

  4. Myrna!! Oh wow, Joan Van Ark has completely ruined her face. When I was living in NY, Eliz Ashley burned down her apt by throwing a smoldering ashtray in the trashcan.

  5. I wouldn't have missed Joan Van Ark, but oh boy, what I would've given to have seen Myrna Loy in her role!

  6. Very cool. I hate to think about how much time has passed but these people live forever on film and in the hearts and minds of fans.
    I always like to say Yes to NOstalgia.

  8. I believe that this is the 3rd replacement cast of the orginal Broadway cast... but, a bunch of talent, huh?
    Myrna Loy!

  9. Didn't Christina Crawford take the young female lead role in the touring company of this with Myrna? And Ms. Loy later reported that she had never, in her entire career, worked with someone so unprofessional or unpleasant.
