...wills or pseudo-wills have appeared, prompting an army of lawyers to do combat for various relatives and other claimants. They range from a maternal aunt, through ninth cousins, to Rice University, the Boy Scouts and Actress Terry Moore, who claims a secret marriage to Hughes. The state of Texas also has attorneys attempting to establish Hughes as a resident at the time of death, which could net $100 million in state inheritance taxes. And finally, there are about ten lawsuits pending against the Hughes estate. Among them: three Texas banks trying to retrieve loans to Hughes, and the University...

It is also a way of severing Mauricio from his dull, affluent life. The tale ends with a prince-and-the-pauper twist, when he changes places with an urchin who is his double...
Travis Hudson makes the most of Lulu, a veteran vaudevillian of hearty humor, whom she turns into an amusing cross between Mae West and Patsy Kelly. She has fun with the low range of "My Husband's First Wife," and the perky syncopations of "Naughty Boy." She and Jay Garner (as Lulu's flashily dressed husband and partner), aided by a pair of tambourines, go to town on "I'd Leave My Happy Home For You," another older piece that Kern interpolated in this show. As their mousy but well-to-do cousin Rupert, John Remme is especially comical when...
