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:
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.
Song and sketch credits are:
Peter Pinne: 'Luton Girls Choir,' Cafe Au Fait,' 'Swan Song,' 'Outside Foys (Love on the Corner),' and 'The Spy' (with Don Battye)
Eric Smith (lyrics): 'Opening Chorus' (with Nehama Godek, music), 'Swan Street Blues' (with Smith and Woodard, music), 'Arts Freeway,' 'Corn Opera,' 'Manhattan,' 'Beatrice the Beatnix,' 'I.M.T.,' and 'Off Centre.'
Jerry Mann: 'The Last Time I Saw Sydney'.
Rae Collinson: 'Crazy White Heap' and 'Connections' (sketches).
1959: Arts Theatre, Richmond (Melbourne) , ca. November.
