My favorite throwaway line of the evening. You know, seeing Julie Harris in "Belle of Amherst" was one of my very own seminal theatre experiences going back nearly 30 years. She took my breath away!
I wish I could remember what Charles Nelson Reilly said about directing her in "Belle" - it was something fabulous. He directed her in "The Gin Game" too.
