Description |
Classic Phillip Productions revue: intimate style with local, topical material but with at least one imported star plus many local identities. Co-production with the Tivoli Circuit. May have had (at least partly) a previous existence in England under a different title. The Melbourne programme says there was new material added specially for the Melbourne season, 'as all good intimate revues must change with the times and locale'. The credited writers are Australian names. |
