1960s Stage Productions
-----
Richard Burton and Julie Andrews
in Camelot


stage tidbits

*Pearl Bailey, Cab Calloway and Morgan Freeman starred in an all-black version of Hello, Dolly on Broadway from 1967 to 1969.

*In the 1950s, Rex Harrison's speaking/singing portrayal of Professor Henry Higgins in My Fair Lady introduced audiences to the concept of the non-traditional musical star. In the 1960s, Richard Burton continued this trend with his performance as King Arthur in Camelot.

*In the late 1960s, the acceptance of non-traditional musical performers came full circle. Rock musicals like Hair featured singers who had rock voices instead of traditional musical-comedy voices.

*Man Of La Mancha was the first Broadway production to be performed without an intermission.

*Paul Lynde's character in Bye Bye Birdie was written to suit his personality after he joined the cast.

*Before he became famous as a Monkee, Davy Jones was the theater's most famous street urchin. In 1963, he originated the role of the Artful Dodger in the Broadway production of Oliver! Unfortunately, although Davy was a member of the original cast, we don't hear him on the original cast album. It was recorded during the pre-Broadway tour, when the part was being played by Michael Goodman.
