|Sennes to Present Starlight Show. at Marineland in lune. By AUDREY KEARNS There?╟╓ll be no more dashing ?√ßoff to Florida to see the Aqua- Icade! Not that you or I or J most of us, for that matter, | could more than dream of I watching that Aquacade un- Ider blue or starlite skies?╟÷but [just like the Genii with the [lamp, Frank Sennes is going [to create magic, and not only [with ?╟úyemon ?╟÷ that?╟╓s mon- ley, spelled backwards. Frank [Sennes?╟╓ magic is his tremen- |dous showmanship which is [back of the great show he and |William F. Monahan, vice- | president and general man- 1 ager of Marineland of the Pa* |cific, will present there dur- ing the summer, starting June 19. On5 that night at 9 p.m., [after Bubbles and the por- [pcfises and seals 'exit ^the ?√ßscene, Frank Sennes?╟╓ Star- night Spectacular ?╟÷ Stage [and Aqua Show,?╟Ñ staged and [directed by Donn Arden, will ?√ßhave its world premiere in the ?√ßSea Arena of the world?╟╓s larg- est oceanarium in Pa- [los Verdes.

Jane looks like one of Iher own Aquacade girls, being ?√ßtall, attractive and blonde but ?√ßshe told me that she?╟╓s been |putting on the Aquacades for ?√ßthe Los Angeles Athletic Club (for several years; several of ?√ßher swimming showgirls have |been in the Florida show, so | you know they know their way [around the pool as well as in | the entertainment world.' Incidentally, when I asked I Frank Sennes about the rumor [that he planned to turn his [famous Moulin Rouge into a ?√ßtheater in the fall, he com- mented, ?╟úWhen I saw how beautiful the place looked without tables the night of the Emmy?╟╓s, I commented that maybe I?╟╓d keep it that way! and turn it into a theater ?╟÷J and some people took me se- riously., Of course,?╟Ñ he laugh-i ed, ?╟úI may do just that?╟÷then! again I may not.?╟Ñ In the! meantime Sammy Davis Jr. continues to star in the cur-1 rent Arden production at the! Moulin Rouge.
