...plot, if it can be called that, is harmless enough. One Don Pepe Hernandez, a would-be impresario in the tiny Honduran coastal town of Trujillo, has rented a decrepit nightclub with money from his uncle, the owner of the local Coca-Cola bottling plant. His show, which he calls La Parada de Estrellas, or Parade of Stars, is advertised as featuring "international cabaret stars," who turn out to be four members of his family wearing various transparent disguises. The play consists of one full run-through of Hernandez's show...
...Grande de Coca-Cola's original title was El Coca-Cola Grande. Coca-Cola threatened to sue for copyright infringement, so they changed the title. It shows you how reasonable even the largest corporations can be. The show is a pidgin-Spanish parody of a tenth-rate nightclub act, and it got rave reviews, although all my friends who've seen it say it's terrible. Opens tomorrow at 8 p.m. at the Cabaret at the Charles Playhouse in Boston...
...Board woke up one morning and found that he had "been replaced as the nation's singing idol." It was time to begin his comeback career. Following a 1973 White House command performance and a TV special, Ol' Blue Eyes Is Back, Sinatra made his first nightclub appearance in three years at Las Vegas' Caesars Palace.

...Entrepreneur Chuck Traynor, 34, explained his switch in roles: from exhusband and manager of Linda (Deep Throat) Lovelace to manager of Marilyn (Behind the Green Door) Chambers. "I hope I'm never your old car," giggled Marilyn after she had made a successful New Jersey nightclub debut preparatory to a Las Vegas gig. Meanwhile, Old Car Lovelace was making the grade quite nicely without Chuck. In Cambridge, Mass., she was awarded the Harvard Lampoon's "Wilde Oscar" for risking "worldly damnation in the pursuit of artistic fulfillment." Then she returned to rehearsals for the national tour of Pajama...
...finally arrived at Manhattan's Palace Theater. Before an audience drawn mostly from the clientele of her favorite night spot, the Continental Baths, Midler demonstrated once again that she is a superb female impersonator. Not, however, as good as Rodney Pigeon. The following night at the Blue Angel nightclub, Rodney, 20, scored a succèsfou in the French-inspired transvestite revue Zou. Hurling himself onto the pocket-handkerchief stage, the divine Miss M's carbon copy skittered and tittered while belting out Midler's theme song, Friends...
