The sketch is about a friend that purchases property he cannot sell, it later becomes profitable and a swindler appears. Five actors perform in sketch.
Comedic dialogue.
"Lots and Lots of It."
Mr. Mann individualizes this role of the homely old fashioned Hebrew as he did the German man of the other sketch, keeping both perfectly true. Mann alone could carry a much poorer written piece than this is, for Messrs. Aaron and Colby in "Lots" furnished him with everything necessary for vaudeville success excepting the players. Mr. Mann supplied them, heading the list, for he has a nicely cast company, not one jarring the playing at any time, almost a record in vaudeville for a company of five. There are plenty of laughs throughout, good honest ones caused by natural humor and dialog, the piece running logically in a complete story. The worst that may be said about it is the title doesn't fill the bill. "The Land of Trouble" would have been better, but a title matters little, and this act will do anywhere.
