Charlotte basking in Broadway
Charlotte takes the stage at the televised event "Broadway Plays Washington" and she won't give it back!
 She sings "When the Idle Poor Become the Idle Rich" from the show "Finnian's Rainbow" (it's a fun bubbly little song---I'd never heard it before). I love that this is from 1982, during that classic FOL period. They mention the show during her introduction, and I LOVE that she wore her hair just like Mrs. Garrett. It really does look like Mrs. Garrett went shopping with Blair for a spring green dress, borrowed some dangly diamond earrings from Blair, and drove in her little yellow VW bug over to a Broadway performance!  - |

Great find. Charlotte does have a nice singing voice, more proof her shrieking in the s1 theme was likely asked by producers

CHARLOTTE RAE
Quote:
That was fabulous to see CHARLOTTE RAE sing and what a voice!  Thank you for sharing it, 80sSitcoms and you're right: MRS G does look like she borrowed dangly diamond earrings from BLAIR, and went shopping to 'Bloomingdales' with her too hee hee!  A very pretty lady this CHARLOTTE RAE with her hair up and in the green dress!
