S07E12 - The Australia Show
Synopsis
·This is one of two episodes of Carols's show filmed outside of the U.S. (a 1970 show was filmed in England) Carol and the regulars headed Down Under and took over the stage of the Sydney Opera House--now an international landmard, but a brand new venue at the time. This show was shot live in front of a sold-out crowd, and it stands as proof of the powerful universal appeal of Carol's presence and her comedy. Even outside the confines of the Hollywood sound stage--in a live theater setting on a foreign continent--Carol has the crowd roaring with laughter (as does Tim Conway as the world's oldest orchestra conductor). The show also finds a beautiful blend of grace and grins when the charwoman aided by the Australian Ballet, finds herself the prima ballerina opposite the magnificent ballet dancer Edward Villella in Swan Lake. Carol sings ""It's Today"" · Tim as the world's oldest conductor · ""Ham Actors"" Mundane is drunk during her performance.
