...lover for 20 years. Years ago, just to see what all the heterosexual fuss was about, Georges (Gene Barry) spent a few hours of passion with a showgirl. From that brief union came a son, Jean-Michel, who has lived ever since with Georges and Albin (George Hearn) in an apartment next door to La Cage...

...Hearn, 48, who has been married and divorced three times, had the same fears as Barry, but nonetheless agreed to put on full female regalia for his audition. "When George walked out, he looked like Arlene Dahl opening at the Latin Quarter," says Producer Allan Carr. "He plopped himself on top of the piano, crossed his legs and sang My Heart Belongs to Daddy. There was a kind of triumph and electricity to the way he did it. We never considered anyone else." Still, it took Hearn eight weeks to learn to sing while simultaneously putting on makeup...

...bleak as Bedlam, a score full of tunes to scream on your way out of the theater. On cable this sprawling Guignol fits with surprising snugness, and Angela Lansbury still schemes and postures through the role of Sweeney's accomplice like a deranged Raggedy Ann. As Sweeney, George Hearn gives a darkly heroic performance that by rights should win him an Emmy nomination next year. Sondheim advised Director Terry Hughes on this production, triggering speculation that some of his other unfilmed musicals might finally be preserved.
