FLUFF " (Continued from Page 7) arm a few inches and everyone will be watching,?╟Ñ she said. The average showgirl in ?╟úJubilee?╟Ñ is 22 and the oldest is about 35. According to Fluff, the best years for a dancer are from 25-35. ?╟úThat?╟╓s when you know how to work,?╟Ñ she savs. Although her office receives a steady stream of performers carrying endless requests, Fluff feels that she can remain friendly but not too close to her ?╟úgirls.?╟Ñ ?╟úWe do have a large alumnae association,?╟Ñ she said. ?╟úI hear from Valerie Perrine ever time she?╟╓s in town. And just last week Patrice Chanel (Carter and Chanel) invited me to see her at the Aladdin.?╟Ñ When the opening of ?╟úJubilee?╟Ñ was delayed about eight months following the November, 1980 fire, Fluff said that they attempted to secure other jobs for the cast. ?╟úIn some cases we did too good a job and the girls decided to stay where they were when we went back into rehearsals. In all, we lost about 50 percent of the cast during that period.?╟Ñ BORN in Butte, Montana, Ffolliott Chorlton started dancing when she was three. ?╟úMy folks took me downtown shopping and a Salvation Army group was playing on the street corner. When I heard the music I just stated jumping around. They handed me a tambourine and there I was, performing as a crowd gathered to watch and applaud. ?╟úWe moved to Seattle soon after that and my mother put me into a dancing school when I was five and I?╟╓ve been dancing ever since,?╟Ñ she said. She won a four-year scholarship in drama to the University of Washington and went from there to Hollywood with a screen test at Warner Brothers. When nothing developed following the test she joined an orchestra that was booked into the Last Frontier in Las Vegas. ?╟úI couldn?╟╓t sing well but played great 1 maraccas.?╟Ñ , She spent a year in a show in Paris, performed at j*HoUywood?╟╓sPlorentine Gardens (?╟úIt?╟╓s now a parking At Frank Sennes?╟╓ Moulin Rouge in Hollywood, 1960 A chorus line, 1952 at Las Vegas' Desert Inn 8B LAS VEGAS SUN Mapa Sunday, September 4, 1983
