| Description |
"This version differs from the many that have been written so far in that a vein of light comedy has been introduced. This was greatly relished by the audience, who were at other times moved by the realistic playing of Miss Lily Dampier in the difficult dual role of Lady Isabel and Madame Vine. Little Willie was played by little Miss Margery Collins of Collgardie." |
