Reynolds and her daughter Carrie both made their Broadway debuts in the play. Per reports, the production broke records for the highest weekly gross of any musical. For that production, she received a Tony nomination. Reynolds also starred in a self-titled Broadway revue, "Debbie", in 1976. She toured with Harve Presnell in "Annie Get Your Gun", then wrapped up the Broadway run of "Woman of the Year" in 1983. In the late 1980s, Reynolds repeated her role as Molly Brown in the stage version of "The Unsinkable Molly Brown", first opposite Presnell (repeating his original Broadway and movie role) and later with Ron Raines.
