Wanda, as bully a trained seal as there ever was, opened. Wanda is more human than most opening acts. She juggles, she works a tight-rope on her nimble flippers, she blows a serious-looking gent and a little seal, a flapper in any sense of the words, for the cutie convulses the house by applauding at all appropriate moments by whacking its sleek sides with its fins. The act went for a smash.
