The Girl and the Drummer

Location:
Date:
The play stands in three acts. Six musical numbers are offered in the first section, six in the second and four in the last act.
In fixing over things the plot has been interrupted at various stages to admit of sixteen musical numbers, some of which do not.
The laughs are not as strong, and the situations not worked out so rapidly as in the original.
Mr. Barrett has instead only a very few numbers, which rise above the ordinary. Although the piece, originally and now might properly be considered a man's show, the selection of women principals has been so well made that the audiences are under deepest obligations to the feminine element for the best of the entertainment.
