MARY MARTIN & ETHEL MERMAN – FORD 50TH. ANNIVERSARY SHOW
The famed 1953 television special celebrating the Ford Motor Company’s 50th anniversary brought together two of the greatest leading ladies Broadway has ever known. The highlight of the program is Merman and Martin’s 13-minute duet medley, where they sing the songs that made them famous, plus much more. On their own, Merman sings “Alexander’s Ragtime Band” and “Mademoiselle from Armetières” and Martin performs a brilliantly comic routine about changes in fashion over the first half of the 20th century.
