34	!!Tropes associated with Gracie Allen:
35	* AlterEgoActing: Type 2. Gracie very seldom broke character in public, and no known recordings (audio or visual) of her doing so are known to survive. Her real personality is only known from second-hand accounts of her character by family and friends.
36	* {{Cloudcuckoolander}}: Her exchanges with her StraightMan husband and others seemed to indicate that her stage persona wasn't so much [[TheDitz dumb]] as living in a world of her own.
