Joyce Randolph died yesterday in her sleep.\u00a0 Ms. Randolph was 99.<\/p>\n

After high school in Detroit, Joyce Randolph auditioned for a part in a touring company of Stage Door. She earned the role and finished the tour.\u00a0 She then moved to New York City to pursue an acting career.\u00a0 Joyce Randolph began getting roles on Broadway and television.\u00a0 When Jackie Gleason offered her the role of Trixie on The Honeymooners<\/em>, she became a household name.<\/p>\n

Some of Joyce Randolph’s television appearances include: Gander Sauce; Rocky King, Detective; Buck Rogers; The Ed Sullivan Show; The Plainclothesman<\/em> (5 episodes); The Jack Benny Program; The Honeymooners<\/em> (39 episodes); The Jackie Gleason Show<\/em> (79 episodes); Hi Honey, I’m Home<\/em> and Everything’s Jake.<\/em><\/p>\n

Because Joyce Randolph became so typecast from her role on The Honeymooners, it became hard for her to get roles.\u00a0 She turned to acting in summer stock, commercials and the occasional television guest spot.\u00a0 Joyce Randolph was the last surviving cast member of what many consider the best television comedy ever made.<\/p>\n

Our thoughts and prayers go out to Joyce Randolph’s family, friends and fans.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
