There is about as much connection
between the title of the "rollicking
musical comedy success, Everybody
Works But Father" and the real pro-
duction as given in the Auditorium
Saturday night, as there is between
black and white. During the whole
performance there was not an ink
ling of Father" nor much of an in
timation that any of the company
worked" although there was abund-
ant evidence that the Auditorium
management and the people who were
in the audience were being success
fully worked" The advance man
who billed the play in here gave as
surance that the company consisted
OF twelve people, that it was an ex-
traordinarily clever medium priced
musical comedy but when the curtain
was rung up only six very mediocre
persons answered roll call, and the
whole production gave about twenty
five per cent of the merit that was
expected. The dancing specialties
were fairly good, but the speaking
parts were mumbled, the acting in
different and the singing execrable.
