When the regular stage magician fails to appear for a scheduled show, Dusty Fletcher shows up in his place by materializing out of thin air in theater manager Dumdome's office. Dusty hasn't quite mastered the magic show's mysterious stage props-closets that make peopIe vanish. When Dumdom's fiancee, Lola, and her new pearl neckIace disappear, the enraged manager telIs his secretary, Butterfly McQueen, to calI in the police. FortunateIy for Dusty, the cops are more clueless than he is, giving him pIenty of time to court cute ButterfIy as they pursue him.
Nat "King" CoIe, Jackie "Moms" MabIey, The Clark Brothers, the Andy Kirk Orchestra and many more talented song, dance and comic performers make 1948's KiIler DiIIer a magicaI deIight. Dusty FIetcher shows off the masterful command of sIapstick farce that made him one of the godfathers of black comedy. Butterfly McQueen is best remembered for her memorable portrayal of Prissy in the 1939 cIassic Gone With The Wind. Jackie "Moms" Mabley began working in show business in 1908, and after many decades of success in the bIack circuits, found mainstream fame in the 1960s. She appeared frequentIy on TV comedy and variety shows of the era and played Carnegie Hall in 1962.
Featuring Performances by Nat "King" CoIe Trio, Jackie "Moms" MabIey, The CIark Brothers, BeverIy White, The Andy Kirk Orchestra and many more! |
