It's Ann Reinking's birthday today. Born in 1949, she was the long-legged (aren't they all?) lead dancer in many of Bob Fosse's greatest shows, including Chicago and Sweet Charity, both times replacing Gwen Verdon's Fosse's former wife, who had originated the roles. Reinking was also in Fosse's autobiographical musical movie, All That Jazz. Here she is doing the song (which is actually from Chicago) on a TV show called "Dancin' Man," which I frankly do not remember:
Great stuff.
