Hanky Panky is a five minute choreographed magic strip-tease. The act uses a simple disappearing handkerchief conjuring trick at its core.Martinez enters stage fully clothed. She performs the trick and the hanky disappears. It reappears from her jacket pocket. The jacket is removed. The hanky disappears again and reappears from her skirt. The skirt is removed. During the course of the act, Martinez continues to make the handkerchief disappear and re-appear from her various items of clothing, which she then removes.Finally Martinez is completely naked. Once again she performs the trick and the handkerchief disappears. With a grand finale flourish, Martinez retrieves the handkerchief from a truly magical place!

On the distaff side, the sexiness inclines more toward comedy. Ursula Martinez gets up to some quite shocking hanky-panky in a magic-striptease number (adorably set to Henry Mancini); Miss Behave, a devilish sword swallower, performs outré sideshow tricks, including one that redefines the term tongue twister. Jess Love, in a sparkly usherette costume, does a perky hula-hoop routine.
