Description
From Lillies first day in America, she is feted and cheered wherever she goes. Henrietta Labouchere is annoyed at Lillies social life and frivolous attitude to acting--especially when Freddie Gebhard meets her, falls in love and takes up too much of her time. But it is not all gaiety. On the eve of the opening of Lillies new play in New York, the theatre is burned down
