Caught in a Cabaret
Directed by Mabel Normand
Produced by Keystone Film Company
A lighthearted silent comedy built on physical humor and romantic misadventure, where a bumbling waiter's deception leads to comic chaos.
Charlie is a clumsy waiter in a cheap cabaret, suffering the strict orders from his boss. He meets a pretty girl in the park and tries to impress her by pretending to be an ambassador. Unfortunately she has a jealous fiancé.
