Revusical.
Notes

Although no precise performance details relating to this revusical have yet been established, it was likely staged on the Clay circuit in 1916. The only reference to Saints and Sinners found to date is in the 4 October 1916 edition of Australian Variety ('Clay's Budget' column), in which Arthur Morley warns pirates that the following revues and burlesques were his property: A Kiss in the Dark, On the Sands, Not a Word to the Wife, Who's the Liar, On Deck, In Old Kentucky, and Saints and Sinners ('Clay's Budget', n. pag.).
