Revival

In the interest of the juvenile holiday trade the Brothers Shubert have revived Victor Herbert's Babes In Toyland. The production has an air of Herbert-cum-Ringling Bros. For the chief attraction of the show is a troupe of Singer's midgets who dress up as penguins in the toyshop scene, play in a jazz band, direct the lumbering movements of three very large elephants. In the midst of the general merriment one midget rides across the stage on a reindeer. What is left of the Herbert score is ably handled by a cast of full-sized adults and a small but energetic pit orchestra.
