Heres a great scene from season 6, episode 28 of The George Burns and Gracie Allen Show (April 9, 1956). In this episode, George is staging a vaudeville show to raise funds for son Ronnies dramatic school, when one of the young performers, Dianne, decides that comedy is beneath her and refuses to appear. Its up to Gracie to convince her the show must go on.
This is an exceptional scene, as theres scarcely another moment in Gracies entire career where she plays anything outside of her usual dizzy character, let alone delivers a full blown dramatic speech.")
