3 ttfrfprmVnt- 3 nurnal, Nev. 10 1966 MUSICAL REVIEW Dying Burlesque With Some Bumps By KARL BARRON Take seven cute chorines, a couple of girls with talents other than dancing, several baggy pants comedians, and a lovely lady who was a stripper long before topless was thought of, shake them well and you have Was now playing at the Curran Theater in San Francisco. The lovely lady is Ann Corio, whose delectable figure belies her casual mention of I was playing burlesque in the The show is billed as musical satire based upon Miss It is not satire, but a re-creation of burlesque in its dying phases, rather than its full-blown vulgar hey-day.

Mac Dennison and Harry Ryan help keep up the tempo, which is generally fast. The most interesting point of the whole show to me was Miss strip. She did it as she did 30 years ago, barely dancing.

She ends up showing less of herself than lots of girls on a beach today, but she retains an aura of mystery which may be good.
