Advertising for the revusical's second week notes: 'Its success was so great last week that hundreds were unable to gain admission. Join in the revels today. Meet Winnie the cow; the Fat Girl; the Siamese Twins; Mr Jingle; the Tattooed Lady; and all the funny folk you see at a carnival. The Maidens are beauteous and buxom, and the fun is fast and furious. [The] comedy is rib-tickling and the songs the kind you whistle all the way home' (Sydney Morning Herald 26 July 1924, 2).
