Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Chorus girl Pauline Garon realizes she'll never get anywhere without publicity. To draw attention to herself, she claims to be engaged to a visiting Russian prince. The nobleman in question calls her bluff by marrying her, and that's how Garon ends up as A Princess on Broadway. Critics were under-enthused by this minor effort, carping that the leading lady was even less convincing as a chorus girl than as a princess. Some nice words, however, were reserved for leading man Johnny Walker and second female lead Dorothy Dwan, as well as for comic relief Neely Edwards.
