| Description: | Then 4 women dance, forming a rotating kick line. Next act is Hank the Mule. MLS the mule almost climbs up onto one of the front tables and nibbles at the show's producer, Mr. Cochran; man in FG laughing hysterically. LS Hank the Mule is going to carefully walk over a woman lying on the floor. Of course he ends up kicking her and trodding on her and finally sits down on top of her. Next dancer Hal Sherman, very short man w/ big shoes, does a rather silly act, but he's a very talented dancer w/ fluid no bones movements. LS Sherman in front of bandstand, doing a fast speed walk in place, his feet move back & forth very fast but he doesn't advance. MLS Slow-motion of Sherman jumping up in the air, nearly doing back/front splits, then jumping side to side, etc. Back to normal speed: Sherman does a sort of shimmy, then scoots off. Shot from above of Sherman scooting across the floor, to applause from patrons at the tables. | |
