"Has one of the crudest disrobing incidents that has
made a bid for attention within memory."
Includes "The Devil", featuring Frank Bright as the Devil and Eddie Barto ("the artist with the burned out
soul") and sundry and various women,
including Kathryn Pearl, who seek to revive
the fires of love in his asbestos
breast. Outside of this ten-minute scene the
show is "Wine, Woman and Song" without
a change, except in its personnel.
Miss Pearl does extremely well with the
principal part. Sam Hearn is in his original part as the
town constable and later in a German
role. George M.
Cohan of the review was the best impersonation
in the list, and he registered a
hit with a singing and dancing turn. Sam Liebert made a satisfactory father
in the sketch "The End of the World," but
his David Warfield left a good deal to be
desired.
