Blanket

On Ken PD Snydecast #174: Comedy Tonight Dana mentions his hope to get nominated for a BWW Florida Award for his upcoming performance in "A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum".

Ken dryly responds that "yeah, with no one taking the spotlight from you with a blanket."

Blanket?

 Blanket?

Despite having seen several iterations of The Producers over the years, this went over my head.

What Ken was referring to was the scene where Leo freaks out over his security blanket (taking the spotlight away from Dana's character.)

Here is the clip from the Gene Wilder film version - looped because people on YouTube are stupid:




Remember, Dana is appearing in "A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To The Forum" from April 12 through May 6th at the Riverside Theatre in Vero Beach Florida.

Come fall, we will make sure and swamp the BWW Florida Awards site with votes.
