SPOTLIGHT ON: Loretta Swit, Star of Theater of the Stars' Production of 42nd Street at the Fabulous Fox Theatre
by Joseph Harrison - July 30, 2009
Come and Meet, Those Dancing Feet... Words sung in the title song of the perennial favorite, 42nd Street, and in the latest production of this toe-tapping show (pun intended) produced by Theater of the Stars and performing this week at the Fabulous Fox Theatre, that is exactly what the audience gets to experience. A talented cast giving every last ounce of energy to entertain, and this dazzling production does just that. Starring in this new production of 42nd Street is Loretta Swit, who is most famous for her dramatic and comedic roles on television and on film, but in this production she gets to strut her stuff in true Broadway diva fashion as Dorothy Brock, a true Broadway diva, and does an amazing job conveying the character and emotion of the role.
