Summary:
In Night at the show, Chaplin plays two characters who create havoc at the theater: a tuxedo-clad, though crudely behaved gent and his lower-class counterpart, Mr. Rowdy, seated in the gallery. In In the park, Charlie's a flirt who gets fresh with a pretty nursemaid. In Hot finish, Charlie's the villain doing all he can to thwart his rival in the Vanderbuilt Cup motor race.
