I saw the Broadway stage play on a high school trip. It was awesome, seemingly thousands of terribly excited students all over the place. Our class had fantastic seats because our fine arts teacher was on it! I remember the awesome, awesome poster with the design/silhouette of a lady I'd never seen anything quite like before or since. I remember watching the commercials and counting the days. Caught a glimpse of Geofrey Holder backstage and we squealed! We thought it was Mr. Holder because we screamed at every person backstage we could see
And Stephanie Mills, honies! Stephanie Mills! Mabel King singing No Bad News. I've got the chills remembering that fine moment. Ease on Down the Road! Home!!! Believe!!! Gawd, Yes! Just about every song a hit on the radio.
Thanks, JAG, for posting! Thanks, y'all for all the information on how to watch! I feel a lovely weekend is here
On edit, it couldn't have been Ms. King as Evillene on Broadway because I remember What's Happening was still on TV that year.
