Two on the Aisle brought the legendary Bert Lahr back to Broadway in a splashy, leggy-chorine-packed revue. Dolores Gray introduced the hilarious sendup of "He done me wrong" numbers, "If You Hadn't, But You Did." The evening featured comedy sketches by Betty Comden and Adolph Green, and Abe Burrows and Nat Hiken, with Comden and Green supplying the lyrics for Jule Styne's brash and bubbling score.
