"At the Waldorf" There are eighteen
or nineteen people in the cast; six principals. Songs included "How Ridiculous", "Gay Paree" sung by Ida Lee Caston and Percy Chapman. Beatrice McKenzie and Walter Shannon
are featured in the billing. Knute Erickson
is the comedian.
There are eight musical numbers.
Not one song received an encore on Tuesday
evening. Not one song is worth an
encore. The sketch is running 45 minutes,
28 minutes too long. After the 28 have
been taken out, whatever music is left
should be re-written.
