I was just coming here to link the live "Sue Me" that was televised from the stage of the London Coliseum, where the production was playing, when Blaine and Levene were doing Guys and Dolls in London in 1953, but PlayWiz beat me to it.

Blaine, of course, did a truncated "Adelaide's Lament" on the 1971 Tonys, which you can find on youtube. You've probably seen it. I've been told (but I can't swear it's true) that Blaine and Levene were supposed to do "Sue Me" but he got cold feet at the last minute and so she did "Adelaide's Lament" instead.

I am linking her on television in 1984 performing "Broadway Baby" and a Guys and Dolls medley, including a complete "Adelaide's Lament." "Adelaide's Lament" starts at around 7:00.
