Showbiz! Burlesque emerges from New York shadows

NEW YORK (AFP) — All you know for sure about Murray Hill is that his
name is probably not Murray Hill -- oh, and that he may not be a he.

At New York's oldest surviving burlesque show there is little point in
feeling sure about anything.

The lights are dim, the wasp-waisted cocktail glasses brimming, and
the orientation, even gender, of performers and the few dozen guests
crammed into the tiny theater open to speculation.
