...school days, which in English would have been a limerick; it concerned an elephant in Sumatra that tried to, well, connect with its grandmother. The naked woman in the foreground foreshadows the title of Ernst's great collage-narrative of 1929, La Femme 100 Tetes, or The Hundred- Headless Woman. She languidly beckons the dumb pachyderm to further erotic fiascoes...
Frankly, this play is awful. An optimistic viewer may be able to extract some cheap laughs from the absurdities, of course. There is a misunderstanding involving a headless body, for example, which had this particular audience in stitches.

A few days later, medical examiner Michael Baden autopsied the body and came to a startlingly different conclusion. Bone spurs on the woman's spine and her atrophied ovaries revealed that she was about 55 years old, and microscopic study of the algae indicated that the body had been in the water at least...
