BURLESQUE MINUS STRIP-TEASE GALS SliLYJT ART Anyhow Old Addicts Report Law -Chastened Shows Dull As Empty Houses Bring Impresario Wails. By Charles Norman (AP Feature Service Writer) NEW YORK The dying dirge of burlesque sounds these days and nlghta In an unfamiliar honky-tonk atmosphere. The girls are there, the comedians are there, and the barker still chants his Ingratiating spiel before and af ter the show, even as of old; but movies, the night-clubs and the edict of the city fathera against the strip tease have taken their toll. Burlesque ain't what It used to be. It may never be again. Valiant was ths word for the Mln sky brothers and Allen Gilbert, of Broadway and Forty-second street, respectively when they reopened af ter a two-month forced shut-down, but the reaction of burlesque habi tues to their shows was: "What la It?" It wasn't burlesque, It wasn't vaudeville, It wasn't a revue. All. however, agreed, whatever It was, It was terrible. Its Identity Lost Burlesque was a formula: a song, a gag, a girl who undressed rhyth micallyknown as a strip-teaser. Without the strip-tease, burlesque, a step-child of Thespls anyway, albeit a lustv one. lost its Identity com pletely. No amoutit of dancing and singing talent, no amount 01 gags, could give back to the devoted fol lnw.T nt the art of Gvnsv Rose Lee and other stars In the burlesque ga laxy what the law nad taaen away. The Mlnsky brothers tried a color ed revue: their Oriental theater Is closed now until September, after playing for a week to an almost- empty house. Asked how burlesque followers re acted to the new entertainment. If it can he called that.
