The sketch is on black and white film.
A Theatre: Cinderella and the Fairy Godmother are centre stage. Women play them both.
Fairy Godmother
In that case Cindy I'll grant you your wish.
Cinderella
Hooray!
Director (Off Screen)
Hold it...hold it...
The director enters. He is a thin young man in a tight black sweater. He wears black sunglasses and is clutching a script.
Director
So, what's going on here? This Cinderella character has summoned up this fantasy Godmother. Some kind of Oedipus complex going on here? Religious connotations; very Freudian.
Cinderella
But I'm a woman? How it could it be the Oedipus complex.
Fairy Godmother
Not in this context certainly.
Director
True...well, how about we have Cinderella performed by a man?
Cinderella
A man?
Director
Yeah, bringing in a subversive element of transvestism; some form of submission to the femininity that he sees in this exalted mother. Psychological..reminiscent of Jack climbing up his stalk. I like this people! This is hot, hot drama.
He checks his watch
Director
Oh, shit, I've gotta go, I'm directing Punch and Judy at the Hippodrome.
Cinderella
What, the policemen hitting women with sausages?
Director
Yeah, very phallic, very psycho-sexual. Okay, come on people.
