Jodelle Oliver Lee is the name used in my first Broadway show “The Happy Time”, with Robert Goulet and Gower Champion as Choreographer. Jody played Annabelle Bonnard his niece and costar. They also used Jodelle Oliver as her name on the billings’.

Where did the name Jody Oliver come from? Her name was changed again in her second Broadway show “Lenny” and has stuck ever since. She had one of the biggest comebacks in history “The Happy Time” was in 1968. Now, in 2015, she’s getting back up on stage which is a feet onto itself. In 2010 she slipped and fell on the ice in front of a bagel shop in New York and had a total hip replacement, resulting in physical therapy and the whole works. That is extremely hard when you were a trained ballet, jazz, tap, contemporary, hip hop, and ballroom dancer. Not a stranger to injury she has transformed herself from a stage performer to a stand-up comedian during a period in time that she was unable to act or dance.
