Date:
A musical farce presented by Max Witt, Inc. The theme is taken from Gilbert and Sullivan’s “Trial by Jury.” The lyrics are by Thos. J. Gray and the music by Max Witt. The company consists if two men and tem girls. Quite a lengthy musical skit, holding the stage for twenty-eight minutes, with alleged comedy and poor music. The slip-shed manner of the presentation and cheap costuming add greatly to its ineffectiveness.
