it says she was born 1944, and yet she played the lead role in" Some like It Hot" on broadway in 1959-and dancer in west side story in 1961- that would have made her only 15 years old,playing the role that marylin monroe played in the film- so i think this board has her age wrong maybe she was born 1934 not 1944, SURE WOULD LIKE TO KNOW

I think that you read the trivia wrong. It said that Elaine Joyce was in "Sugar," the Broadway musical version of the film "Some Like It Hot". She played the role of Sugar Kane - the one Marilyn Monroe did in the film. That show was on Broadway in 1972-73 when she was 26-27. She was born in December, 1945 not 1944.

Some Like It Hot was a 1959 movie. Sugar, based on that movie, was a musical on Broadway but it doesn't say what year that was. Judging by other information, it was several years later.

I had the chance to work with Michael Jackson who was as brilliant as they come.
