In 1971 I gave up a chance to see a matinee of Follies to go to the 55th Street Playhouse and see Boys in the Sand - talk about the stupidity of youth!
In Everything Was Possible, his remarkable book on the making of Follies, Ted Chapin recalls how as the run progressed Yvonne De Carlo had trouble remembering her lyrics. She encountered problems in this clip but still gives a powerhouse performance.
And Tony, those last lines are for you:
Lord knows, at least I was there.
And I'm here!
Look who's here!
I'm still here!

Thanks Will. By the way, I loved Yvonne De Carlo! So, doubly good, I get De Carlo and Sondheim.
When the goin' gets tough!..Yvonne rocked this one. :)
Very Nice!
