** Justified in "Hey Big Spender", as the dance hall girls act as mechanically as possible, while flatly spouting tired sexual euphemisms -- the only hint of passion is when the Big Spender enters, and when they extinguish their cigarettes.

''Sweet Charity'' is a 1966 musical with book by Creator/NeilSimon based on the Creator/FedericoFellini film ''Film/NightsOfCabiria'', score by Creator/CyColeman and Creator/DorothyFields, originally directed by Creator/BobFosse and starring Gwen Verdon. It tells the story of Charity Hope Valentine, a romantic dance hall hostess looking for love in all the wrong places, and how she eventually finds it--and loses it. The play is considered a classic example of Fosse's direction and style of dance, and some of the numbers (ie "Big Spender" and "Rich Man's Frug") are some of the best examples of Fosse style dance.

* OriginalCastPrecedent: Bob Fosse decided Gwen Verdon would wear a LittleBlackDress for the whole show, just because he liked the way she looked in it. This dress has now become the [[IconicOutfit standard Charity costume]]. She'll occasionally wear red for her scenes in the dance hall, but other than that, you'd be hard pressed to find a Charity who doesn't wear the black dress for at least a few scenes.
