Synopsis by Sandra Brennan
This silent British comedy features at least seven vaudeville acts and was adapted from a popular stage musical that tells the tale of a shady nightclub proprietor who heads for Arcadia because he believes the jig's up and the cops are out to get him for running an illegal operation after closing time. Eventually he returns to re-create his club and win his wife back from a dishonest jockey.
