Description The funniest, the sauciest, the naughtiest variety revue in years. Six counties combed for 35 curvaceous girls. 12 specialty acts. The greatest number ever included in any variety revue in Australia. Headed by top line English and Australian artists. Plus the mystery of Siam, the fascination of China, the excitement of Malaya, the enchantment of India - revealed in the most provocative, the most hilarious way.
