The scenic investor is one of elaborateness, and the costuming quite adequate. The first is the opening chorus. In this the four show girls clad in evening gowns make a stunning picture. The girls while they have no voices to speak of, look charming and wear clothes well.
There are four ensemble numbers. The first is the opening chorus.
On the House Top. Annette Town Topics. Goodnight.
The harmony of the male voices was the means of earning several encores.
It was a mistake not to have kept this production on the road a week or two longer, so that it might have been whipped into proper shape. Cues were passed time and again, and in several instances, where the chorus had lines that should have been spoken in unison, they would get away about a word apart. The result was a jumble of sounds that no one in front could distinguished. The story, while consistent enough, lacks comedy. The choruesmen are the most human in appearance that have been seen and they form a splendid singing quartet
