This view of the house curtain of the Burbank Theatre (aka the New Follies), 548 S. Main St., comes at the end of "Peek-A-Boo" (Billiken Productions, 1953). And that's about all we see of the theatre's interior. It's a filmed burlesque show featuring Venus, Patti Waggin, The Duponts, Leon DeVoe, Jennie Lee, Marlana, and others. Lillian Hunt, in charge of shows at the theatre, was the director.
See the page about the Burbank Theatre on the Los Angeles Theatres site for a history of the building.
The film is available from Something Weird Video on a disc with "Hollywood Burlesque," filmed at the Hollywood Theatre in San Diego.
