It's Like Interpretive Dance, But Focused on Marital Bickering

At least, that is the way that I would describe this hilarious 1954 clip from Sid Caesar's variety show, in which Caesar and an actress silently argue to the rhythm of Beethoven's Fifth Symphony.

Very funny. I wonder how many times they had to rehearse that! Wow.

Bravo! I can easily see my wife and I doing the same with the "Flight of the Bumblebee" as performed by Bobby McFerrin and Yo Yo Ma.

Best,
Joseph

I'm thinking about "Welcome to the Jungle" by Guns N' Roses.

Just an FYI. The actress in this clip is none other than Tony and Emmy award winner Nanette Fabray.

Thanks -- I was wondering who she was.
