„The screamingly funny farce“

Editorial content. „CRODS ATTEND NIXON THEATRE

      Marie Doro Makes Speech at Opening Night

      of New Playhouse

      Building is Splendidly Equipped for Presentation

      of Large Productions“ (...)

      „The performance ended with the screamingly funny

farce, entitled A Night in a London Music Hall.

This sketch employs fifteen persons in its presentation

and has made one of the biggest successes

in modern vaudeville. As the intoxicated box-holder Reeves

kept the large audience in paroxysmus of laughter.“

      However, it is now Charles Chaplin, not Billie Reeves that

keeps the large audience in paroxysmus of laughter.

      Nixon Theatre, 34 S 52nd Street, Philadelphia,

      A Night in an English Music Hall, November 21, 1910.

      Opening of the new theatre.
