synopsis
Whoa Nellie! Hollywood Burlesque (a.k.a. Famous Hollywood Burlesque) has it all! This Continental Picture (produced by roadshow king J. D. KENDIS) features wooden tit-serenaders droning endless, dreamy ditties; campy chorines ("The Lovely Hollywood Cuties") in gauzy, glitzy garb; snappy specialty dancers (courtesy MARY KING and DYANN & LEGRAND TORRY); corny but delightful shtickmeisters SAY NO MORE JO and EDDIE WARE, who do an old "Buzzin' the Bees" bit; and gorgeous -- really gorgeous -- burley-q queens, all in a complete, classic, old-fashioned show at San Diego's famed Hollywood Theatre!
