It consists in an arrangement of manikins in a setting representing a theater stage, and the boxes on either side of it. On the stage itself a vaudeville performance takes place, with manikins on strings and the audience is represented by the manikins in different boxes. It is needless to say that Professor Charlarte's manikins posed gracefully, and without fear of the camera, for they refused to be frightened by anything so harmless. As the show on the stage goes on, we are given glimpses of the bold flirt in the left-hand box who refuses to watch the performance and the magician on the stage because of a wireless flirtation with a lady on the opposite side of the theater. He is sitting opposite an inebriated manikin, who barely escapes plunging from her second story box on every flirtatious glance of the lady, though none of them are intended for him. The performance on the stage is concluded with a dance in which the marionettes and their leading lady take part. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
