The play was originally written especially for a Canadian actress & singer B. Lillie. The authors were H. & D. Fields. The idea came to them after visiting Madame Tussaud’s Wax Museum. Herbert died soon after they started their work. The work on the book was continued by S. Sheldon & D. Shaw, who changed in for the other actress – G. Verdon. She has already become successful on Broadway by the time she has been invited to play in the performance.

A. Hague & D. Fields created music & lyrics for the spectacle. B. Fosse was chosen to be a director for the first time in his career. He was also a choreographer for the production. Broadway premier took place at 46th Street Theatre in 1959. The displays lasted for a year & 452 performances were shown to the public. R.
