A specialist reports: Mrs. Henderson's naked and the nude

In the Guardian, Sophie Heawood chats up Lily White, "a burlesque artiste from the Whoopee Club about the knickers and kit in Mrs. Henderson Presents: "I suppose some people might think all we do is ponce around and get our kit off, but there's a lot more that goes into it. In a way, it's harder to work without your clothes on than with them. There's one point in the film where the singer, who remains clothed, says rather sulkily to the head nude girl: "All you do is stand there." The girl replies: "I believe that's the definition of a star." I was cheering in my seat."
