A revue is a rare theatrical treat these days. In its heyday, the irresistible combination of light comedy, song and dance sketches was incredibly popular. Its golden age lasted from the early 1920s to the late 1950s and for much of that time its greatest practitioner was Noel Coward who wrote and appeared in a succession of revues on both sides of the Atlantic such as London Calling!

by Ashlee Latimer

The pair were joined by Cecily Strong as Erin Burnett, host of CNN's OutFront. After the latest rumble of an e-mail scandal caused by James Comey this previous week, the sketch was built primarily around Burnett repeatedly returning to the discussion of Clinton's e-mails, even in the face of Baldwin's Trump literally kissing a member of the KKK, Putin, and other controversial figures who have endorsed and supported Trump's campaign.
