NOT NEW: the gowns, the wigs, the show tunes, the structure of the act. Jean, made them “new” because there was a totally new focal point, but the rest was same old/same old and needed to change. Wearing 8-10 year old gowns was so far from innovative, cutting edge or hip stage wear that they needed badly.
