THE STORY	WHAT THE CLIPPING SHOWS
Marc Bolan and T. Rex return to the British stage after a long absence. The article notes that the songs remain similar (with “Deborah” missing), the audience is still predominantly 10–15-year-old girls, and the screaming is as intense as ever. The tour features lavish production, and Bolan’s appearance (shorter curls and added weight) has only heightened fan enthusiasm.	• Dramatic live stage photo of Marc Bolan and the band • Bold headline “Marc ist wieder die Puppen tanzen” (Marc makes the puppets dance again) • Text detailing the return after 15 months and the fan reaction • Photos of the elaborate stage setup
