Producers; directors; dancers; and stars like Tallulah Bankhead; Ethel Mermen; and Carol Channing. I laughed at lots of the stories. True; who knows. But it is entertaining. Fans of Broadway and Boze Hadleigh will like this the most.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Could have been fun...By Gregg E. SimmonsThere were so many missed chances with this book. Boze Hadleigh has done a great deal better in the past. I wish he had really gone into some things a little more. Missed chances...0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
