| Description: | Tape 7375 A Also contained in Cat # 49471 Wilson, Keppel and Betty - 'London Clubs and Cabarets - Trocadero Restaurant' We join the story when a small group of girls are dancing in a chorus line on the stage. "A smile with Wilson & Keppel." L/Ss of Wilson and Keppel doing their famous Egyptian comedy sand dance. The both wear little tunics and Egyptian head-dresses. It's very funny. Man backstage looks through curtain. "And Wilson, Keppel & Betty "break in" Wilson and Keppel do a funny dance up and down some steps on the stage (to a kind of hoe-down tune), then Betty (in sparkly and skimpy two-piece costume) joins them for a fast finale to their act, danced to 'Tiger Rag'. One cutaway shot shows a man backstage zipping up a mask on his head so he looks like an African man. "And the grand finale brings down the curtain - " Woman in a white tuxedo with top hat and cane walks on stage and strikes a pose. Curtain is drawn back to show a line of men in evening dress, top hats and canes (and African face masks) standing in the same pose, ready to start dance finale. | |
