...turned loose again, they might give some idea of the pace of Go-Go. No white chorus ever went quite so fast before. There is a blare of trombones, a rattle of traps, a shriek of voices. For a while the audience holds its hand to its fevered brow, blinks agitatedly a few times, watches a few scenes fly by, shudders at a few clearly indicated jokes, and then it all seems to be over.
