Original Toronto Star caption: Agile song-and-dance man Lionel Blair this week high-stepped his way into Toronto and a photo-session at a Richmond St. hair salon in connection with the opening of that traditional English pantomime, Aladdin, which starts at O'Keefe Jan. 6. Blair says critics don't understand the true meaning of pantomime.
