[4] A series of adventures happen to "Charlie" as he visits the Sydney Royal Easter Show: he chases a couple of larrikins who have picked the pocket of a man visiting the show, encounters various side-show acts, fights a boxing lady, meets a confidence man, and chases girls.
Vocker was a Chaplin impersonator who had been doing a "Chaoplin stunt" in Sydney for the past ten months.
[8] The critic from Punch praised the film saying: Mr. Gavin had unearthed a comedian of undoubted talent, who, with only slightly more experience in "Movie" acting, will soon eclipse the majority of the efforts, of comedians playing in imported films, and even aspire to be the equal of the great Charlie Chaplin himself.
Mr. Gavin is to be congratulated on giving the public a decided novelty in films, and also on the extraordinarily heavy bookings he had already received for the exhibition of the picture in the N.S.W.
The scenario... contains many humorous situations... whilst the photography... is quite equal to anything yet screened in Sydney.
