The Cinderella man
   Opening on 17 January 1916 at the Hudson Theatre, the charming comedy by Edward Childs Carpenter ran for 192 performances. The Cinderella of this fantasy is a starving poet (played by Shelley Hull) whose "Prince Charming" turns out to be a poor little rich girl. Frank Bacon turned in a fine comic character performance as the butler.
