A Night In The Show - Movie Review |
|
In 'A Night At The Show' Chaplin played two roles: one as Mr. Pest and one as Mr. Rowdy. The film was created from Chaplin's stage work from a play called 'A Night at an English Music Hall' with the Karno Company from London. Chaplin performed this play during his U.S. tours with Karno and decided to bring some of this play to his film work. Mr. Pest tries several theatre seats before winding up in front in a fight with the conductor. He is thrown out. In the lobby he pushes a fat lady into a fountain and returns to sit down by Edna. Mr. Rowdy, in the gallery, pours beer down on Mr. Pest and Edna. He attacks patrons, a harem dancer, the singers Dot and Dash, and a fire-eater.
