A live stage show recorded in Boston, in 1953. Starts with a routine about taking requests. Then plays excerpts from Rock Mananov. Victor plays Claire >De Loon, until the lights go out, microphone problems, and coughing audience interupts. Next a theme of Happy Birthday is played in various styles.
Part 2 starts with Victor taking requests for tunes to play with the theme of Tea For Two. Victor sight reads music, which sounds a little different upside down.
PS: Victors stage show ran for many years, and is one of the most long running and successful shows to be done. The show was kept fresh by changing up the routines, and even in alternate punch lines for his jokes.
