A music hall comedy farce where
Buster Keaton plays twenty different characters! It seems at the play house Keaton is the big shot... Indeed only show in town as he is everything in the theatre from stagehand down to orchestra to stage performer... but then he wakes up from his dream to his reality as just a humble stage hand.
Mayhem soon follows Keaton around, mayhem which involves a performing ape, minstrels and ends in the play house being turned into a swimming pool...
An incredibly inventive comedy that packs more into a few minutes than most films can pack into hours.
