Fans,
This is a video of Donna McKechnie dancing the lead in the big "Turkey Lurkey" production number from the Bacharach/David musical PROMISES PROMISES. That was on B'way in 1969 (I've always read it was a big flop, but I haven't personally researched the production history), and I think it says here that Donna was an original cast member--so, presumably, this was the gig that preceded (or was perhaps coterminous with) her time on DS:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15S4M5EAG8YThis number is perhaps the ultimate expression of what I think of as the late Sixties, early Seventies "Bob Fosse on amphetamines" school of B'way choreography--I don't know who designed the actual moves here.
Whatever one may think of Donna's acting ability, this is proof of what a phenomenally gifted dancer she is. I have heard she's really nice, too.
G.
