We have a centenary to celebrate today, dear reader - that of one of the greatest Broadway dancers and choreographers of the latter half of the 20th century, former Mrs Bob Fosse, Gwen Verdon!
She - in collaboration with Bob - was the powerhouse behind some of the greatest and most memorable musicals, including Sweet Charity, Chicago (in both of which she starred on Broadway), Cabaret, Damn Yankees and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (for which she coached Marilyn and Jane to create two of the silver screen's greatest vamps)!
On this Tacky Music Monday, however, by way of a tribute - here she is in a most bizarre routine indeed:
Have a good week, dears.
Gwyneth Evelyn “Gwen” Verdon (13th January 1925 – 18th October 2000)
