What, among all the Shakespearean actresses you have no doubt seen, your fave is a cabaret singer? I looked her up and see that she has no listings for theater, and a single perf in the Tempest, her last appearance. Okay, okay, I'm just surprised, that's all. Maybe I am missing some humor? Anyway, Swithin, thanks. I did due diligence with a search before responding, maybe I missed something? Thanks, Swithin.

next (from Swithin) : Carried an attractive purse

Lafitte, you're beginning to make me miss the TCM boards, when people could play this game without having their responses questioned! I was sticking to film actresses, although I might have made a different choice if I considered those I've seen on stage. But that's my business.

And now, for your listening and viewing pleasure, here is Ms. Welch in her moment in Derek Jarman's The Tempest:

Sorry, Swithin, apologies, I thought you were making a joke, or something. To think that of all the fine perfs on film ... but never mind ... thank you, I hope, for at least allowing me to be shocked. If my comment was questioning and/or disparaging, apologies. I liked Elisabeth in the clip, thank you. She reminds me a little of Maxine Sullivan who I saw sing "I've got you under my skin," (I think) on a PBS Gala program in 1978. The voices are different, but they both were grand dames of song back then.

Thanks laffite. Btw, speaking of Maxine Sullivan, I once worked on a Shakespeare event with Dick Hyman, who talked about his work with Maxine Sullivan. I now have a CD of "Maxine Sullivan sings the songs of Shakespeare as set to music by Dick Hyman."

Whaddaya mean "besides Dana and Steve" here, Kay???

Dana's last name is "Carvey", AND Steve's last name is "Garvey"! And so NO, they're not brothers! And besides, Steve was a baseball player and not an actor!!!

Oh...wait...never mind.

And so in that case...
