Broadway Theater
This show took a different format than N1. Elvis would continue to do “Spinning Songbook” shows in later years; to my knowledge this was the first such show. There was a spinning “wheel of fortune” onstage with names of songs, and with some members of the audience having a chance to spin the wheel and/or dance with go-go dancer "Kitty" in a cage onstage. As Wayne Robbins mentions in the review below, the first line of “Accidents Will Happen” provided a perfect opening for this ‘Broadway’ show when the curtain opened. Looking back after seeing many later Costello shows, it was the only time I saw the Attractions in their original form, playing a regular set onstage.
