:50:03
Bravo!
:50:04
Thrilling in the extreme!
:50:07
Gentlemen...
:50:09
this is Miss Ninetta Crummles...
:50:11
the Infant Phenomenon.
:50:13
How old is she?
:50:19
She is 10 years of age, sir.
:50:22
Not more?
:50:26
Not a day.
:50:27
- My dear?
- Yes?
:50:28
It is of the utmost that I speak to you
about a great struggle...
:50:32
which is taking place outside
this mortal temple we call the theater.
:50:37
The contestants are
those aged combatants...
:50:40
art...
:50:42
and commerce.
:50:44
And art, it would appear from the receipts...
:50:47
is in its usual position of jeopardy.
:50:51
Might you and I have a word, à deux?
:50:54
Excusez-moi.
:51:02
"Infant Phenomenon!"
"Infant humbug" is more to the point!
:51:05
She has been 10 for the past 8 years!
:51:10
They keep her on a diet of gin and water
to hold back her growth.
:51:13
- You don't say!
- I do say, sir. I do!
:51:16
That hammy sprawler keeps the rest of us
from doing our specialties.
:51:21
Mine is the Highland Fling.
:51:24
Would you like to see it?
:51:27
Please.
:51:34
Ladies and gentlemen...
:51:36
based on the receipts
Mrs. Crummles has shown me...
:51:39
Liverpool has little relish...
:51:42
for high-minded theatrical entertainments
properly conducted.
:51:47
We must give them our pity.
:51:53
Now, we must give them something
they will pay to see.
:51:56
Romeo and Juliet.
:51:58
But we have no Romeo.
Mr. Leadville's leg is broke.
