The Queen's Birthday

Queen Mary Lou's minister gives a speech that sends the courtiers to sleep. This allows the Queen to sneak out, where she finds people holding a party with entertainment.

I use that last word in its broadest sense, since one of the acts on display in this variety short are a trio of Three Stooges knock-offs, and two sets of tap dancers, none of which have I heard of before. An internet search turned up one of the dancers, Tommy Riggs, who seems to have spent much of his career on the radio, mostly in the midwest, but occasionally doing summer replacement shows for the major networks' stars.

I wasn't terribly impressed by any of it.
