PZAZZ GIRL - Jacqueline Douget, a featured performer in the Desert Inn's new super spectacular, "Pzazz '70 and All That Jazz...Baby/", makes a lovely sight as she takes in the sun at the Dl poof. The mil/ion dollar plus production opened in the Crystal Room, Thursday, July 10. THE VEGAS BAG FANTASTIC! EXTRAORDINARY! FLAWLESS!.... and the search is oh to find the new, more precise superlative to describe the awesome magnificence of the FRANK SENNES- DONN ARDEN superspeetacular "PZAZZ 70 AND ALL THAT JAZZ BABY" which opened this week at the Desert Inn. Just the mind-blowing razzle-dazzle of its eye-popping psychedelic opening - spotlighting the often featured talents of singers BARRY MONROE & ED WHITING, sparkling JACQUELINE DOUGET, lead dancer NICK NAVARRO, exotic NORMA REYES and dozens of leggy, limber and energetic dancers in choreographic concert - just about out- spiendors anything you've ever seen! "PZAZZ 70" literally explodes into heady, jubilant tributes to jazzy jazz capitals like Chicago, San Francisco, Hollywood, Harlem and St. Louis in production numbers that were undoubtedly tagged 'spare no expense' in costumes, special effects, music and talent (you'll remember MICHELLE MONAY, KIKI PAIGE, LORETTA ST. JOHN, JIMMY WEISS, LILLIAN D'HONAU, AND BOBBI HILL among the principals in the cast of 150!). BILL CAMPBELL has designed costumes that can only be described as breathtaking! HARVEY WARREN performs miracles and mirages with scenic designs that include fog, bubbles, waterfalls, rear screen projection and thousands of lights. The towering music by JIM HARBERT with lyrics by LENNY ADELSON is as e- vocative of yesteryear as it is sweepingly "now." If it's possible for a show to become a legend.... "PZAZZ '70" will carry the standard of brilliance for years to come! An incomparable hlockhuster! APRIL 3, 1970 COLORFUL SPECTACLE ?╟÷ Beautiful girls, lavish costumes and spectacular productions are the basic ingredients that make the Desert Inn's million dollar production of "Pzazz 70" one of the top attractions ever to hit the glittering Strip.
