 | | Even though not seen in these parts in two decades, No, No, Nanette has a lot more going for it than the two memorable songs, "Tea for Two" and "I Want to be Happy" mentioned in the advertisements. |
 | | At the center of the action, three women strive for fulfillment, Nanette (Elizabeth Klemperer), the flapper-in-waiting and title character, her dowdy, unappreciated auntie Sue Smith (Dorothy Lennon), who blooms in the last scene, and in a comic parody of their liberation, the kvetching housemaid Pauline (Christine Lightcap). |
 | | In its original incarnation, No, No, Nanette was not really a dance musical, despite the presence of a male and female chorus. |
