Revue.

As with Late Night Revue, staged at the Arts Theatre earlier in the year, The Swan Street Revue was conceived as a late-night production. The programme indicates in this respect that supper was available from 11 pm, with the show beginning at 11.30 pm.

The program indicates the following sketches and musical numbers:


  • 1. 'Opening' (company)
  • 2. 'Swan Street Blues' (Angela and Marion)
  • 3. 'My Fair Lady' (Shirley)
  • 4. 'Luton Girls Choir' (Leslie, Anne, Marion, and Angela)
  • 5. 'Arts Freeway' (Shirley)
  • 6. 'Corn Opera' (company)
  • 7. 'The Spy' (Leslie)
  • 8. 'Crazy White Heap' (Marion, Shirley, Leslie, Angela, and Terry)
  • 9. 'Manhattan' (John, Terry, Mike, and Ron)
  • 10. 'Angela' (Mike)
  • 11. 'Beatrice the Beatnix' (Marion)
  • 12. 'Can-Can;' (Marion)
  • 13. 'The Last Time I Saw Sydney' (Angela and ?)
  • 14. 'I.M.T.' (Ron, Marion, and Leslie)
  • 15. 'Cafe Au Fait' (company)
  • 16. 'Off Centre' (Ron) ; 17. 'Circulation' (company)
  • 18. 'Swan Song' (company)
  • 19. 'Finale' (company).

The production credits section refers to a song by Peter Pinne called 'Outside Foys.' The items listed in the program's running order list does not include this number, however. Similarly, Rae Collinson is credited with a sketch called 'Connections', but this is also missing from running order list.
