Sidney Wilmer and Co

Location:
Date:
20 min. full stage – Presenting for the second time here a farce entitled, “A Thief of the Night”. It went fairly well, though I can imagine it being a tremendous laughing hit if the actor playing the part enacted by Woodney, Mr. Wilmer, who is, without exception, the most irritating individual whom I know who persists in thinking himself a comedian. His support was so much better than Wilmer’s shortcomings stood out by contrast.
