- This is some show-ground belly dancing from Sono Osato, with the gum chewing being an added bonus!
It comes from 'The Hanging Acrobat' (1951) episode from the television series 'The Adventures of Ellery Queen’.
Osato began her career at the age of fourteen with the Ballets Russe de Monte-Carlo.
She later danced with American Ballet Theatre (then Ballet Theatre). While at ABT, she danced roles in such ballets as Kenneth MacMillan's Sleeping Beauty, Antony Tudor's Pillar of Fire, and Bronislava Nijinska's The Beloved.
As a musical theater performer, her Broadway credits included principal dancer in One Touch of Venus (Donaldson Award), Ivy Smith in the original On the Town, and Cocaine Lil in "Ballet Ballads".
In the late 1940s and 1950s, Osato briefly pursued a career as an actress, appearing on Broadway in Peer Gynt, in the film The Kissing Bandit, and in occasional guest appearances on TV series such as, The Adventures of Ellery Queen (1950).
