Reception edit

Bosley Crowther of The New York Times reviewed the musical negatively, criticizing it as "perilously close to being the most haphazard, pointless and dull motion picture shown on Broadway this season."^[2] He specifically critiqued the acting of Bonnie Baker and Orrin Tucker as being lackluster, and Jerry Colonna and Edward Everett Horton's roles for engaging in "meaningless and unfunny business".
