In his first vaudeville performance, Brian did not dance in a musical sketch but rather played the lead in the deep-dyed melodrama, "Somewhere in Mexico." Brian plays an American aviator who falls into the hands of the Pancho Villa, played by John Sainpolis. He must sacrifice his brothers life, then his own, to keep the location of the Pershing's column secret.
