- As requested, here's Jayne Houdyshell as Hattie Walker singing 'Broadway Baby'. I absolutely love Linda Lavin, but Jayne Houdyshell is so much better in the role imho. She's just so freaking amazing and funny! Enjoy!

the glasses around her neck is such a potent costume touch. it just tells you everything you need to know about her
I swear to god 10 years later and I still come back to this video so much. Jayne eats this whole scene. Elaine's version is so sardonic and beat down. Jayne's is so hopeful against all odds. I genuinely think this is one of the pinnacle broadway songs.
Saw this show on Broadway and Jayne Houdyshell's "Broadway baby" stole the show. To me, it was the highlight of the show. A magnificent performance. All these years later this is the number I remember the most from this revival.
Now Tony nominated for this role. Totally deserves it.
Never heard of this woman, but she OWNED this song from the first line!!! Thanks for posting. Could we please swap out some no-talent American Idol buffoon for her? Please. Please.
This Broadway Baby nailed it!!!!!!!!!!!!
So glad they added the original version back into this transfer.
Saw her Sunday in LA. She brought the house down with this number.
She is just wonderful. Perfectly cast.
The Old Songs are so much better when they are done together, with the big 'Broadway' ending. Rather than being done as three individual numbers.
Nails it! Well deserved Tony Nomination!
Hit the decks - this girl has really GOT IT!!!.
Ditto! While it pisses me that Elaine Paige and Bernadette Peters weren't nominated, I'd be very glad if at least one of the Follies ladies grabs a Tony! Jayne deserves a Tony win for this performance! :)
wow. incredible.
loooove her
alwys delivers the goods baby!
I also thought I'd never see Jayne again! She was so great in this production. Thanks.
I thought Elaine Stritch owned this but Jayne takes this to new heights, she's superb. Almost tragic but still full of hope. Wonderful, all young actors should study this and learn.
james carrington it’s Elaine’s song !!
Jayne Houdyshell never disappoints. I had the privilege of seeing her three times onstage in three different roles and she's one of the most honest actors with the most range I've ever seen. I can't wait to see more of her work.
Who is this woman I've never heard of in my entire life in the theater she is amazing what a performance and I've seen many performances of this song and I think she tops the list. I've got to find out more about
I agree she nails it and deserved her Tony nomination! I don't think she will win since the character is a bit underdeveloped, but Brava, Jayne!
This production was stunning, and is one of Sondheim's masterpieces. I can't wait til we get another revival of this (as I also loved the 2001 revival too!).
And with that, Ethel Shutta is now my SECOND favorite Hattie.
love this
the lady nails it.
Love it. Jayne rocks. Enjoyed it even more than Ethel Shutte's performance.
So damn good.
Absolutely glorious. I actually love you for uploading this.
Do you have Loveland/Live, Laugh, Love/Buddy's Blues, by any chance? I would actually kill to see them. Well, not literally, but you know
I think I've watched this vid 30 times...

You're welcome! Glad you like it. :D
I love this!!!

Thank you! Do you have Who's That Woman, that's my favorite number :)
@LovettSweeney
Yeah, I uploaded it. ;)
I'm just a Broadway Baby,
Walking off my tired feet,
Pounding Forty Second Street
To be in a show.
Broadway Baby,
Learning how to sing and dance,
Waiting for that one big chance
To be in a show.
Gee, I'd like to be on some marquee,
All twinkling lights,
A spark to pierce the dark
From Batt'ry Park to Washington Heights.
Some day maybe,
All my dreams will be repaid.
I can get to strut my stuff,
Working for a nice man
Like a Ziegfeld or a Weissman
In a big-time Broadway show!
Heck, I'd even play the maid
To be in a show.
Say, Mister producer,
Some girls get the breaks.
Just give me my cue, sir.
I've got what it takes.
Say, Mister Producer,
I'm talkin' to you, sir.
I don't need a lot,
Only what I got,
Plus a tube of greasepaint and a follow spot!
I'm a Broadway Baby,
Slaving at the five and ten,
Dreaming of the great day
When I'll be in a show.
Broadway Baby,
Making rounds all afternoon,
Eating at a greasy spoon
To save on my dough.
At my tiny flat there's just my cat,
A bed and a chair.
Still I'll stick it till
I'm on a bill all over Times Square.
Some day maybe,
If I stick it long enough,
I can get to strut my stuff,
Work-ing for a nice man
Like a Ziegfeld or a Weissman
In a big-time
Broadway show!
Lara Martins oh please as if we don’t know the words
Superb. But I never liked the ending. I think Soundheim should just let her have the big finale solo. The song deserves it.
no it's perfect :)
I love Bernadette peters in this part but I love how the magic is portrayed from the magic that is soundhiem ...this lady is a real
She was sensational and sadly the show never got that good again.
