Juliet Prowse: Born to Dance

Juliet E Prowse
Juliet Prowse was a young dancer who burst into the international spotlight in her first movie, Can-Can. Considered talented and exotic, she caught the media’s attention and her engagement to Frank Sinatra fueled their fascination further, as did a love triangle with Elvis during G.I. Blues. Unhappy with 20th Century Fox, Juliet broke out of her contract, and became one of the highest paid dancers of her era on a $1 million Vegas contract by the mid-1970s. While Juliet won awards for Sweet Charity, opening on Broadway seemed elusive. Juliet continued to build her world-class modern dance company, winning Female Entertainer of the Year in Las Vegas four times in the era of Liza Minnelli, Barbra Streisand and Shirley MacLaine. This story is told by Juliet’s niece and includes Juliet’s words from 640 letters and amusing insights from those who worked with Juliet. With her endless legs and playful charm, Juliet had many romances and married actor John McCook of The Bold and the Beautiful.
