If virtue were in fact rewarded, a happy future could be predicted for "The Littlest Revue." This second annual summer show under Houghton-Hambleton auspices is modest, chaste, industrious, cheerful, intelligent, comely. But these assets, so endearing in a maiden, are not enough for the intense concentration of the theatre. Energy is needed in the play. Style, wit, authority and "The Littlest Revue," is deficient in those more metallic attributes of showmanship. Charlotte Rae is a comedian of considerable satiric bite.
