A glorious song by Cole Porter,

Six superb dancers,

A modern story inspired by Shakespeare’s The Taming of the Shrew,

Create a classic dance number in the timeless musical, Kiss Me Kate.

Ann Miller, Tommy Rall, Carol Haney, Bobby Van, Jeanne Coyne and Bob Fosse perform Cole Porter’s “From This Moment On,” to Hermes Pan’s choreography in the 1953 MGM musical, Kiss Me Kate.

(l.-r.) Gwen Verdon, Helen Gallagher, Thelma Oliver in the stage production of Sweet Charity, ca. 1966

I just watched Gallagher dancing with Bobby Van at the 1972 Tonys. From No No, Nanette, a dance number called "You Can Dance with Any Girl."

This is followed by a performance by legendary hoofer Ruby Keeler, then 63 years of age, of "I Want to Be Happy." Just pickin' 'em up and slappin' 'em down, like the old days at Warners.

follow-up to my other X-Men piece. A little bit older, not so much wiser, but deadlier than ever

Still hated, feared, and saving the world. What's changed?
