- A musical play in three acts. Produced and directed by Edward Royce. Produced by Charles Dillingham. Opened 4 October 1921 at the Globe Theatre and closed 29 October 1921 after 31 performances.
New York Herald: "Next to the star [John Charles Thomas] the Astaires once more dancing about him like fireflies made the high score of the evening, getting four encores for their entertaining singing and nutty dancing to "Upside Down" and revealing in this and other whirlwind numbers they have developed a penetrating comedy touch with their lips as well as their always ambitious feet."
