- Men who impersonate women are nothing new in show biz, but
- when George Burns heard that some dame was doing a great take
- on him, he had to see for himself. Recalls comedian LOUISE
- DUART: "He said, `You're terrific, kid. Have a cigar.'" On Dec.
- 9 viewers will get a chance to see DuArt's versions of Burns,
- Joan Rivers and Woody Allen, among others, in a one-woman
- Showtime comedy special. DuArt, 39, has mastered 100 voices,
- including Yoko Ono's and Dr. Ruth's. Says she: "After I do
- George Burns, my vocal cords are not thrilled."
