This show did not get past the tryouts. It was not the first US version of Veber's farce - Paul M. Potter's 1909 version was more successful with a reported 184 performances on Broadway.

Note that one web site credits the music to Schwartz and Jean Szulc. There was a composer of that name but I cannot find any other evidence linking him to this show or to Schwartz. As the song sheet cover and poster reproduced in David Jasen's book The Theatre of P. G. Wodehouse clearly show Schwartz and Peters, I suspect that naming Szulc is an error.
