About "The Boys from Syracuse: What Can Do with a Man?" by Bibi Osterwald
From the 1953 studio cast of Rodgers and Hart's The Boys from Syracuse, Bibi Osterwald delivers 'What Can Do with a Man?' with vaudevillian snap. The brass and woodwinds sparkle like a Broadway marquee, but underneath the wit lies a sly, exasperated tenderness—a comic sigh dressed in showtune finery.
