Type: Sketch - Comedy

Father, mother and a precocious child make up the trio, who have a sketch enabling the little girl to secure the appreciation of the audience while in boy’s dress as a flippant “kid.”

The scene is laid in a dressing room of vaudevile theatre, and the quartet, returning from the stage, is upbraided by its manager for carelessness. He immediately calls a rehearsal, and the songs and action thereafter are legitimately introduced. The men “make up” in view of the audience, having a “Dutchman,” “Rube,” black-face and “straight.”

Miss Allen assumes three characters, and there is a servant (Gus Carney) who attempts to handle the comedy. Miss Allen appeared best as a sobrette caricatured a Salvation Army lassie, and played a nurse, in which disguise se married her heart’s choice (Albert Latscha), with the odds that she did so because he had a million.
