Herself
Known to his fans as the "Clown Prince of Denmark," or "Great Dane," the remarkably talented Copenhagen-native Victor Borge performs some of his funniest moments from a collection of his earliest television and film appearances on Victor Borge: Then and Now. The magic moments from "the Great Dane's" career are offered in this retrospective featuring performances of such numbers as "Clair de Lune," funny music-oriented stories and classic clips of Mr. Borge with Fozzie Bear, impersonating Franz Liszt for Mike Wallace, and playing "Yankee Doodle Dandy" for a smart baby. The 90-minute production also features some of the highlights from several performances filmed at the Fox Theatre in Detroit, MI, and serves as an informal retrospective on Borge's long and multifaceted entertainment career.
The world-famous Danish American comedian, conductor and pianist Victor Borge (1909-2000) celebrates his 80th birthday on June 8, 1989 at the Wolf Trap Farm Park, America's National Park for the Performing Arts near Vienna, Virginia, with guests like Robert Merrill, the Canadian Brass, and Anna Moffo.
