Mein Liebchen

Location:
Theater:
Date:
25 minutes, library interior. 3 men and 2 women. A purely conversational sketch which lacks the heart interest and punch. There’s gossip and an innocent little girl, a man whom the gossip says is bad, being the same men the good little girl loves. Then there’s the father and uncle of the good little girl who are pinochle friends, which fact is brought to light through a game of pinochle in view of the audience. However, the lines are not dazzling, the comedy in rather slow, and the sketch in its entirety is not a big feature. (Toledo)
