Intimate revue.
'Yes Please, the new Phillip Theatre revue which opened on Saturday night contains much that is bright, yet one leaves the theatre meditating on an imposed slickness which is at variance with the spirit of this company's cheerful productions over the years. The scripting is as tight as or could be wished for, the acting is of uniform briskness, with Gordon Chater in fine fettle... some of the sketches jab rather fiercely at local personalities; and there is a positive surfeit of Russian and bomb material... All in all it comes close to being Chater's show - his Lord Russell in gaol doing a creaky cha-cha is bettered only by his East Pymble committeeman advising on "What to do when the bomb comes", notwithstanding a macabre note or two about children' (Sydney Morning Herald 9 October 1961, p.5).
Other sketches included spoofs on advertising; Mary Hardy as America's first lady; Jimmy Hannan inflicting Palestrina on Bondi Beach sunbathers; Jill Perryman, Judi Farr, and Mary Hardy describing how they ended up with the 'Long Bay Blues'; and Jill Perryman as a 'Wood Nymph.'
The writing team included Ray Taylor.
1961: Phillip Theatre, Sydney, 7 October 1961 - ca. 7 March 1962.
