The Cabaret Girl Synopsis
Ann Reid moves to the city to study opera but is discouraged by her teachers and so becomes a cabaret singer instead. At Balvini's cabaret, Ann's friend Dolly introduces her to Ted Vane, who asks Ann to be his wife. She accepts, but Ted's mother is opposed to the match and convinces Ann that Ted will be ruined by the marriage. To drive Ted away, Ann assumes the role of a worldly woman, attaining notoriety by her outrageous behavior at a party. Ted learns of his mother's scheme and arrives at Ann's just as Balvini is attacking her. Ted rescues her and the two are married.
"$5, 000 Reward" holds a slight edge in general audience appreciation, but "The Cabaret Girl" offers its own unique cult appeal.
