Six chorus girls and a variety of costumes including a naval uniform. The chorus girls wear blue jackets and pink tights. Plot involves an American naval officer disguising himself as a Japanese prince to disgust the father of the woman he loves who wants her daughter to marry the prince.
Singing.
"The Japanese Prince."
A neat and clean production for small time, carrying considerable more class in its general aspect than has been given to turns of this description built for the popular houses. It is attractive. Were eight chorus girls in the act it would profit immeasurably. Six looks like cheating. Perhaps ten girls would make the act big enough to headline. It's too light for that position as not constituted, but composes a nice turn, through its personnel and a couple of likable melodies.
