Ginger, The Lonely Soldier

Examiner of Plays' Summary:

This musical comedy has a story which begins better than it goes on. It opens in an Adamless Eden ruled by an old maid who forbids the entrance in it of men, and persuades her girl-charges to make a vow against matrimony. Her plans are upset by the arrival of a 'lonely soldier' who recognises in one of the girls his unknown correspondent at the front, of a sailor who finds in another a sweetheart, and of a millionaire who discovers in the owner of the Adamless Eden his fiancée of years gone by. So everything points to a series of marriages for the fair man haters; but these do not come off till after some rather irrelevant doings with love-philtres at a VAD hospital and at the Palace of the Rajah from whom the philtres have been stolen. Rather ignorantly but innocently written. And recommended for Licence. Ernest A. Bendall
