One of the funniest acts in show business and very nice people, I worked with them often.
Mickey, the blond partner, was not Mickey at all, it was is nickname as he played Mickey Mouse in the RBBB spec a Disney salute, or something like that.
Heidi Guti, the daughter, married Jim Grogan the helicopter pilot who had a helicopter and trapeze act for big spectaculars. I believe the trapezist was Jim Merrifield.
So sorry, it was Dave Merrifield -- my apology. I never met Dave but I did meet Heidi and Jim, briefly. She was already married and out of the Gutis act at the time.
However, I did see their fantastic helicopter/trapeze feature; amazing and a huge hit with the crowd.
