I'm reading Cy Fuer's autobiography, "I got the show right here" at the moment. Lilo was definitely worried that the show was being stolen by Verdon, however she was also in the social circle of Cole Porter (mostly due to her husband, a French marquis. This was Vernon's first show, so she had little clout, and she apparently had a little bit of an attitude about Michael Kidd as she thought he wasn't as good as her mentor Jack Cole.
