TWENTY ONE
The telephone and the emotional chaos of
the morning were nothing compared to the mob
scene outside the Belasco. In addition to the more
than two hundred fifty people comprising the Pretty
Lady company, there were four mounted policemen.
Satellite panel trucks from television – ABC
Eyewitness News, NBC 4, CBS 2, CNN and Fox 5 --
were there, too. Actors were jostling for position to be
interviewed about what sort of director Danny Limm
was. Behind the actors, dancers from the chorus were
stretching and posing for the cameras.
