A Phillip Street revue comprising original material from Australian writers and 'spots' imported from London. Highlights from the production, according to the Sydney Morning Herald, included Eric Rasdell's contribution, 'Maypole', which the paper's critic describes as 'delightful... with snappy modern wit [written in] ye olde worlde style'; 'Man in the Raincoat' (sung by June Salter); and Barry Humphries's 'gawkily funny portrait of a suburbanite keen on maroon in colour schemes' (3 August 1957, p.4).
