Summary
Pathe synopsis: A "lady" arrives in her Rolls Royce to do a glamorous cabaret act at Ricky Renee’s London Club. A door man greets her, a receptionist says good-evening. The cabaret star puts on an old hag’s clothes as a waiter serves drinks and a customer looks boggle-eyed at the proceedings. All these parts are played by - the wizard of make-up himself, Ricky Renee!
