Billed as a 'Komical Kolation', this revusical concerns Mr Mug (an elderly widower) who has his mind set on marrying again. The 'infant terribles' of the woman he is pursuing cause him no end of grief through their antics, however.

Revusical.

The Theatre records that two of the features of this first-part entertainment were 'Art Slavin's staggersome make-up as a spiritualist, with big goggles eyes and a profusion of red curly hair' and the freak appearance presented by Fred Webber as Adolphus Quince. The critic suggests, too, that Slavin was 'the life and soul of the revue' (February 1918, p.41).

1 1 Casey's Ashes Art Slavin , Art Slavin Revue Company , Fullers' Theatres , Clay's Bridge Theatre Ltd , Harry Sadler , 1917 single work musical theatre revue/revusical humour

Revusical.

Arguably the most popular of Art Slavin's revusicals, the story concerns the widow Mrs Casey and her two daughters: Mary (whose hand in marriage is sought by Percy Verisopt) and Norah (desired by Dr O'Bungun). When Percy asks Mrs Casey for permission to marry Mary, she mistakenly thinks he wants to buy their pony. (Much hilarity is said to have arisen from the scene in which Mrs Casey calls forth her daughter and Molly the pony). Meanwhile, two other characters, Doolan and Count de Fuse, propose to Mrs Casey at the same time, which leads to a quarrel. The widow faints and her late husband's ashes are thrown out the window during the ensuing fight. This leads to a duel, first with rapiers and then with pistols. Doolan fires through the count's legs, missing him but hitting Dr O'Bungun, who is stooping over his surgical case.
