Snowy-Blowy Christmas Revisited

Something you want to enjoy 24/7. Once again, here are Donna McKechnie, Baayork Lee and Margo Sappington, plus the original ensemble of Promises Promises leading the first act showstopper "Turkey Lurkey Time." I'm kinda hoping that the original Michael Bennett choreography will be recreated in the spring revival, as I can't see anyone topping what the auteur did with this number. Enjoy!

Does that mean that this clip glows in the dark?

And I am SO pleased that you are enjoying Guernsey. I do love it so!

Was anyone else on stage, couldn't take my off of Donna McKechnie. Am I wrong or do I see pieces of Cassie's solo in "A Chorus Line" in that choreography? Wow! What a nice holiday gift. Thanks for posting!

Ted, it's hard to look at anyone else in the clip. I watched another version on the Ed Sullivan Show done a year or so later where Sappington stepped up into McKechnie's role, and it isn't the same.

I notice shades of Cassie here, and also in "Tick-Tock" as well:
