In 1982 and 1985 respectively, she made a pair of appearances at the Milwaukee Melody Top; firstly in a charming and well-sung Meet Me in St. Louis, and then 3 years later as Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz. Many years later, in 1995, she was part of a rehashed ensemble - several too old for their roles - in DOA State Fair. She still sang well, but too old for the ingénue.

Its modest audiences notwithstanding, HOH could possibly rack up a pretty decent run performance-wise; due to this apparent "angel".

Not if you saw him backstage --- where he would frequently walk around completely naked.Nothing "disappointing" in that department!"

The Full Monty, definitely. Dirty Rotten Scoundrels, somewhat less definitely.

I saw her in August 1994 at the then-Shubert Theatre in Chicago. It was the final performance. I was there as part of a theater party for The Chicago Drama League. After the curtain call, we waited for a brief time for her to come back out on stage in order for her to present some large, fake diamonds to some members of the group.

Krueger also had possession of some film footage of the 1940 Hold On To Your Hats with Al Jolson and Martha Raye - I think in color. Give both my balls to see it.

Only saw her on stage once, and that was in London in 1977 in a play called Cause Celebre. Both she and the play - an enveloping courtroom drama - were excellent.
