Glimpses of the costumed crowd include not only Xenas and Gabs, Vampire Slayers, Pirates, Flappers with Gangsters, and Batmans and Robins but "Diana Ross and the Supremes, the secretary of state, flaky first daughters, Ethel Merman and Sweet Potato Queens --it was all [there] in the Castro"(116). That initial season (1976) boasted an impressive and game group of guest stars - Juliet Prowse, Joel Grey, Charles Aznavour, Ethel Merman (doing ``There's No Business Like Show Business,'' of course), Lena Horne, Rita Moreno (``Fever''), Peter Ustinov, Jim Nabors, Candice Bergen, Ben Vereen - but they all played second fiddle to Henson's irreverent creations, led by Kermit, Miss Piggy and Fozzie the Bear. Still, it's one of the most in-depth looks at Broadway ever attempted, and cowriter director producer Michael Kantor dutifully covers the high points--if he doesn't speak to stars like Carol Channing, Harvey Fierstein, Ethel Merman, Nathan Lane, Stephen Sondheim, Fred Ebb, Al Jolson, Tommy Tune, Chita Rivera, Joel Grey, and countless others, you can be certain you'll see clips of them performing. |
