Hot Dog z Murphy and
Miss Primrose Semon
Big Hit at Gayety

George P. (Hot D-o-o-g) Murphy
and Primrose Semon with the
Burlesque Wonder Show presented
my Wife Won't Let Me-" inusi-
cal comedietta, at the Gayety
theater. The production is 100 per
cent burlesque, with real comics,
beautiful women an exceptionally
well balanced chorus and costumes
and scenery above the average.
Miss Semon had a slight advn-
take in the eyes of the audience for
popularity over "Hot Dog" Murphy,
one of the real funny, menSin bur-
lesque. The impersonations and
song numbers of the "peppy" lit
tile Miss Semon brought forth
rounds of applause. In speciality
with Frank Martin she was un-
doubtedly the hit OF the perform
ance.
The comedietta is a complete
book interspersed with highclass
specialties. Murphy. as a Swiss
tinker becomes entangled in the
snares of matrimony and the fun
begins. With a running start he
keeps the merrmment of one situa-
ton after another humm;ng until
the finale.
Miss Semon, in constantly
changing wardrobe Of exceptional
creations, leads the women of the
company, She is likewise entertain
ing in hey comic lines. Edna Green
in soubretts role leads the girls of
the chorus in number of the "jaz-
ziest" Of song numbers. Clara
Dohglas assists in the musical num-
The stage settings and conduct
of the show are typical of the ex-
tfav.gence of all Joe Hurtig pro-
