Plot set around lodging house keeper trying to maximize profits and the two men he rents to.
Farce operetta, musical comedy.
The story was evidently intended to be played in a rapid in-and-out-of-door farcical manner and interpolation of the musical numbers shows the action to such an extent that the value of the tale is lost. Mr. De Angelis is the day-worker; Mr. Moore, the night man, and Mr. Belcher, the lodging house keeper. The three play very well together, and it seems rather a pity they haven't a vehicle more worthy of their efforts. It does appear as though all of the trio might remain together and evolve a comedy act in "one" that should get over.
