“Cook never let the pace lag and was never at a loss for words.” — Cabaret Scenes

Veteran producer Dick Taylor once again presents the iconic actress Carole Cook! Cook showed a knack for comic timing from early on, so much so that the legendary Lucille Ball took her on as a protégée. Cook made many appearances on Ball’s TV shows The Lucy Show (1962) and Here’s Lucy (1968), as well as other shows like Magnum, P.I. (1980), Dynasty (1981), and Grey’s Anatomy (2005). She also had roles in several movies, like Sixteen Candles (1984) and The Incredibles (2004), while maintaining an active stage career and supporting many AIDS charities. Carole Cook was the second person to step into the role of Dolly Levy, starring in the first Australian production of Hello, Dolly! in 1965 and appeared in the original Broadway production of 42nd Street.
