There Is little sin- cerity or romance in the second change, the tUe^ having beien too consistently burlesqued before. Guessing the relations and com- plexites will keep any audience busy. Thus It's primarily the theme, al- though an old one, with more twists than several. The cast, with the exception of Miss Tashman, who has too little time to linger in the mem- ory, being passably secondary. All of the action takes place on two Interior sets. Wah/' Chicago, Aug. 26.
