The Jack Benny Program

60 Piece Orchestra Skit (3x5)

Air date: Jan 25, 1953

Jack explains to an interviewer in his dressing room that he would rather have been a concert violinist than a comedian. In a flash-back, we see him practicing as a small boy, and as a 17-year-old. Don Wilson does the Lucky commercial as a ballet, in tobacco-leaf costume. Jack imagines that he is playing with a large orchestra. At the end of the show, Ann Sothern comes on to plug Private secretary.
