	Rodgers & Hart Revisited - Lyrics by Lorenz Hart
		Dorothy Loudon, Danny Meehan, Charlotte Rae, Cy Young, Ann Hampton Callaway, Arthur Siegel, Sandy Stewart
		Dorothy Loudon, Danny Meehan, Charlotte Rae, and Cy Young, to sing songs that had been cut from shows written by Richard Rodgers and Lorenz Hart in the 1920s and 1930s or, if used, long since forgotten.
		He began with the first song from the team's first successful show, The Garrick Gaieties in 1925, and demonstrated that Hart's wit and Rodgers' melodic gifts were just as apparent in songs like "At the Roxy Music Hall" and "I Blush" as they were in their more famous compositions.

		On her debut solo album, Broadway veteran Dorothy Loudon performs a set of theater songs she was too young to do on stage.
		As much an actress as a singer, Loudon invests the lyrics with character and sings in a voice that can have the honeyed tones of a Barbara Cook, but can also descend into the raspy, nearly spoken tones of an Elaine Stritch.
		Loudon was appearing in top nightclubs by the late 1950s, long before her triumphs in Broadway musicals of the 1970s, and this is an excellent forum for her talents.

	Guardian Unlimited \| Arts news \| Dorothy Loudon
		If a single epitaph could encompass the Broadway star Dorothy Loudon, it would be "She had too much talent." Though shy offstage, the onstage Loudon, who has died of cancer aged 70, often seemed to wrestle with her own restless, comic invention.
		Rarely was this talent harnessed to greater effect than in her Tony award-winning characterisation of the evil orphanage warden Miss Hannigan in the Broadway musical, Annie.
		Similarly, Angela Lansbury created a template for Loudon in the role of the murderous Mrs Lovett in Sweeney Todd, which was one of her big successes.

		The act was made up of fragments of arcane ditties (so little known that Loudon would often interrupt them with, "Am I the oldest one in the room?"), self-deprecating remarks, random interjections, and comic desperation.
		It was a highly original style, and Loudon was a wicked, sardonic comedienne and an all-stops-out performer, bold, broad, and uninhibited.
		Loudon was in the tradition of the great Broadway musical clowns, a direct descendant of Bea Lillie and Nancy Walker.
