...drama in two acts, by Henri Lavedan, and "Edgar et sa Bonne," by Labiche, is a one-act farce. The "Servir" was first produced in Paris in 1913 at the Theatre Sarah Bernhardt, and, with the foremost of modern French actors, M. Gintry, in the chief role, was highly successful.

Miss Olive Tell is miscast as Lady Silchester and the only one of the cast whose merit stands out above the rest is Mr. Sidney Greenstreet, whose characterization of Henry VIII is highly successful...
...role of Janet Kirkaldy, Miss Gilda Leary is sweetly attractive as the seamstress. Miss Viola Gillette is a convincing Mistress Musgrove, and Mr. Barlowe Borland, as Geordic, plays the low comedy part of a Scottish simpleton in a highly laughable manner. The Christic Mucklebacket of Miss Eleanor Daniels, the Sir John Murray of Mr. Jack McGraw, and the Lady Murray of Miss Gilda Leary are all adequate characterizations. Walter Connolly is a competent Dick Lockhart and the minor parts are suitably cast...
