...added an ingredient that was perhaps mercifully lacking on the stage: where the theater's Irma was the only girl on view, the screen now swings with poules on parade-Kiki the Cossack in fur-topped boots, Lolita in heart-shaped sunglasses, the Zebra Twins, and a nameless tart with a cantilevered bust...
...first look, Notes sounds like the disordered rambling of a demented candidate for a degree in universal knowledge who has tossed his index cards into the nearest bottle after emptying it at a gulp.

We wouldn't drive Negroes mad as we do by accepting them in ballparks, and on concert stages...
