In his weekly 'Vaudeville' column, Just It critic M. A. Keup describes Convicts in Clover thusly: 'Golf with the governor of the prison as one of the means of the prisoners recreation, afternoon tea served by a very attractive waitress, and solicitous warders constantly inquiring if there [are] any complaints, [make] life behind prison bars an idyllic experience' (14 July 1927, p.28). One of the vaudeville-style musical sketches introduced into the narrative was titled 'Ham-let'.
Songs incorporated into the 1927 Fullers' Theatre (Sydney) production included 'Clap Hands' and 'My Hero', both sung by Amy Rochelle.
1927: Fullers' Theatre, Sydney, 9-15 July.
