May. 8:00 o'clock- Curtain! I Action! l Here, in a nutshell, is the nucleus of the 1 -, tion of Mr. Fran- play. Linda, the daughter of a socially pretentious mother, is set to marry Ernest, the mama's boy of a supposedly wealthy mother. Linda's ex- fiance, a reporter, turns up to break the match as one hilarious incident after another unfolds. The wealthy aunt of the family-they've not seen her for many years-turns up, is mistaken for the new maid, and is put to work. A crook, posing as a society reporter, enters the house with his niece, he is after some valuable letters known to him to be concealed behind a family painting. The reporter disguises himself as the Aunt from Boston, disrupts the plans for the wedding, and partially exposes some of the phony guests. Linda realizes she really loves the reporter. Together they dispose of her ex- fiance's mother and enable Ernest to marry the niece of the crook. The reformed crook makes a match with the wealthy aunt, his former sweetheart. This performance was repeated on the afternoon of Sunday, December 11, and again was enthusiastically received by the audi- ence. t -zo-
