Unreal P60ple suited the audiences The theme of the 1983 Variety Show was Unreal People, but may- be the theme suited the audiences better than the shows. During the matinee performance, the crowd got so rowdy and wild thow rowdy and wild were theyU, that Dr. Clark deemed it necessary to command the crowds to settle down after only the first act. A short time after this speech, the spotlight exploded in the midst of the spectators.
