Born in a beer garden; or, She troupes to conquer

Description

Essays and articles, including some first printed in Saturday Evening Post, by Morley, Throckmorton, and Nash about the reopening of the Old Rialto Theatre in Hoboken, NJ. The book ends with reprints of Morley's exceedingly tongue-in-cheek newspaper ads to entice jaded Broadway patrons of 1928/29 to sail away to Hoboken to experience 19th century melodramas.
