TOO VERSATILE"
FOR THE "LEGIT"
But It Helps Miss Fitzgerald a
Lot in Vaudeville
Calling I

Not so many years ago when Lillian
Fitzgerald, the comedienne. who comes
to Keiths next week, was soubretting
in musical comedy and trying to get
permanent foothold in theatricals she
discovered that her lack of progress
was due to her being too versatile.
Today she is premiere comedienne,
At the time Miss Fitzgerald made
her startling discovery she was working
for prominent theatrical firm. Her
job was to understudy every soubrette
that the management had, and her en-
ploycr told her she was given this job
because she was the only one he could
find versatile enough to handle it.
Then Miss Fitzgerald decided she
wanted TO act in her own right. but
the management wouldn't listen. They
told her she was too versatile and re-
fused to release her from her contract.
SO she entered vaudeville and is rap
idly winning her way to the position
of hcadliner.
