Dialogue.
A light dramatic offering, showing the many unpleasant troubles experienced by actresses. The idea is rather old, but the turn carries a bit of novelty that should carry it along. Half the stage is utilized as a dressing room, while the other half is in "three" with a garden set. The woman in her dressing room receives a telegram telling of a death in the family, but appears for her comedy part for the performance. After completing her lines she returns to her dressing room scene. Another "hit" was given, but due to a continuous racket both outside and inside the house, the lines were impossible to understand.
