A couple of the women are dressed up as men in suits with fake mustaches while the other performers are wearing long-sleeved dresses and head coverings. They are, from left to right, the hero, Virginia Stoddard; the heroine, Pet Patrick; the villain, Ruth Cohen; Ma, Ina Mae Johnson; detek-a-tif, Mildred Toliver, and woman of mystery, Faye Chiles.
