    At fcj? <h m CILLA (Talking to a man in the audience) f utl& 8* caj k*fM>ASij Jim, do you like my outfit? You^know, traditionally, they would never let me walk out like this...I mean...in just a shirt and pants. Oh no, they usually go to a lot of fuss and bother. They call it a presentation production number. Do you know what that is Jim? Well, it*s a big musical number where they sort of present me. It?╟╓s all so very grand and very complicated....at least they make it seem that way. Actually it?╟╓s quite simple once you know the tricks. Would you like for me to show you how it?╟╓s done...I mean, sort of let you in on their little secrets? Well, first, if you are a female performer they always surround you with some nice looking chaps Aren?╟╓t they super...! (to one of the boy dancers) especially that one over there... the one with the funny grin. What?╟╓s the matter, Jim? I can see^your face that you?╟╓re not very- impressed with my young men. Well, cheer up, because in numbers like these they always have a line of lovely dancing girls. (Girls come out) How about that? Aren?╟╓t they stunning, all covered in mink and shining from head to toe....which reminds me, I must change into something more appropriate. Let?╟╓s see, they would probably put me in something flowy and feminine.... (They change Cilia?╟╓s dress on stage) That?╟╓s it ....chiffon and sequins.. .Next , they write you a smashing open- ing song. (Bby dancers come out) (To man in the audience)
