whew.

the idea of Ms. Dennis stammering and hemming and hawing through "Peter
Pan" was a little scary

Sandy Duncan was in it at one time.

Maybe we could do an all-Sandy version of Pan.

Pan = Sandy Duncan

Smee = Sandy Dennis

Hook = Gary Sandy (from WKRP, remember him?)

Wendy = Sandi Patti

Princess Tiger Lily = Sandie Caine (a porn star, or so I'm told)

Nana = Sandy the dog from Annie.

I just hope the porn star wouldn't be offended by being asked to work with someone associated with Annie.

I agree - I don't know why they cut it. Granted, it's a rather anachronistic
goal (to 'get ahead' by marrying your boss), but they kept the play in the
original period, so it would have worked just fine as a period attitude.

Maybe it was for time - not only are shows shorter now as a rule than they
used to be - but they extended the dances for both Brotherhood and Coffee
Break and Secretary, so they might have just done it for time.

But I think it was the anti-feminist angle of the song.

It's a shame - because the melody is interesting and the lyrics are some of
the best in the show.

I didn't know that he was involved on "Ground Force" - but he's quite well-
known. He's been a big-band style crooner for quite some time - and, of
course, on "Will and Grace" he was Grace's boyfriend-and-then-husband for
several seasons. He also played Lt.Cable in the Glenn Close tv production of
"South Pacific."
