Set in Mexico, the storyline revolves around the lovely senorita, Carmelita, and the two men vying for love - a resplendent president and a bold guerrilla leader. Much of the fun also revolves around the comic characters Dr Dingle (a travelling quack) and Jazzbo (his factotum). The first act is set in the courtyard of the Inn Perfecto, with the second act played out in the Grand Ballroom of the Presente's palace.
1918: Palace Theatre, Melbourne; 1-21 June.
