Ann Reinking and Bebe Neuwirth had already co-starred on Broadway in “Sweet Charity” and “Chicago” when, in the spring of 2001, they co-starred once again by joining the 1999 Best Musical Tony winner, “Fosse.” Reinking was co-conceiver/co-choreographer/co-director of the show, and this was Reinking’s last Broadway appearance to date. Included here are “Mein Herr,” “Steam Heat,” “Dancing in the Dark” and more.
