Description "Faux satirical revue, based on the premise that the 'world's leading vaudeville star' [but fictitious] Miss Rita May's planned tour to Melbourne has had to be re-written, re-cast and re-staged due to the set's being lost at sea and the company's mass walkout in Uruguay. Mann and Challinor - the last surviving members of the company - soldier on, with Miss May, of course vaguely intact."
