From: NYC | posted: 10/16/2006 at 12:42:18 PM ET "All Fall Down" is CREEPY but it lead to her Oscar-nominated gig in "The Manchurian Candidate" (same director John Frankenheimer). The terrific Private Screenings interview that Robert Osborn did with Angela earlier this summer - she talks about her stage career quite a bit - will be on at 1:45 this afternoon.
Here's your 6 degrees of Gypsy trivia for today - before the 2nd revivial of Gypsy starring Angela came to Broadway in 1974, they took it on tour around the US. Maureen Moore played Dainty June in the tour and on Broadway! At one point, Chita's daughter Lisa Mordente was also in the tour as one of the Hollywood Blonds. Incidentally, Mary Louise Wilson, who's currently knocking 'em dead as Big Edie in Grey Gardens, was Tessie Tura in that tour and Broadway production of Gypsy and was Angela's standby as Mama Rose. And now Maureen Moore is standby for Little Edie in Grey Gardens!
I guess it just shows you that anybody who's anybody was in Gypsy at one point, whether on a tour or on Broadway!
