I had the privilege of seeing Bea's one woman show (2002 was it?). I'll never forget it.... a bunch of us were waiting for her to come out behind the theatre after the show. She came out and seemed so humble and surprised to see all of us. She waved and smiled and got in her car. As the car drove off, my friend went chasing after it yelling "BEA! BEA! BEAAAAA!" and did a few somersaults while flailing his arms around like a crazy person. It was such a hilarious scene. I hope she got a kick out of it in the car :) RIP Bea. We miss you!

Bea didn't like talkshows and interviews because she disliked appearing as herself in front of an audience. She took to seeing them as little plays: it's less scary when you play a character called Bea Arthur. It's the same thing she did during her one woman show. I wouldn't be surprised the Dorothy laugh was part of her performance.
