"Jimmie. q new offering, produced by
Arthur Hammerstein, was seen at the
Playhouse last night and pleased the
people present in goodly numbers.
The opening scene was novel touch,
two people only on the stage, listening to
a singer off-stage practising vocal exer

of the characters on the scene.
The scene develops by bringing out the
lullaby song Baby Dreams, a rather
pleasing melody, which is woven through
the substance of the piece, coming up at
various times over and over again.
The second scene, in a cabaret setting,
is brisk and brilliant, bringing out all the
characters to public view and giving each
a chance to display his or her speciality.
The list includes. Ben WEIGH. in Hebrew
dialect comedy part, Harry Doll as a bud
