Little Shop Of Horrors with Jonathan Groff
+ WilliamM replied to + WilliamM's topic in Live Theater & Broadway

Merman stayed with the musical in New York for two years and then toured with "Gypsy" for another year. It was the first time she ever tried such a long national tour. And then she turned down "Hello, Dolly."
