Arbuckle and Keaton's 1919 comedy short sees them starring as stage hands in a vaudeville house. But they let themselves in for trouble when they defend the strong man's assistant, who is being bullied by her weighty boss. The real action begins however, when the strong man goes on strike, forcing the crew to put on the show themselves: all goes well until the strong man starts shooting at them from the balcony. Entertaining and deftly choreographed stuff, executed with Keaton and Arbuckle's trademark style.
