| Description |
The plot concerns a girl (Tip Toes) who is a member of a stranded vaudeville troupe; a 1000 dollar bill comes the way of the party and it is expended on Tip-toes as one means of setting a sprat to catch a mackerel. A wealthy husband - for Tip-toes herself! - and the troupe will be in clover! There are catchy songs in it: wonderful dancing by three dancers from the Folies Bergere who astounded Australia; frocking that will startle the ladies and intrigue the gents, and in the orchestra there are two pianos that offer syncopation with distinction. |
