Little Jessie James was a musical farce that was the biggest hit of the 1923-24 Broadway season.

Little Jessie James was written by Harlan Thompson, the author of the book and the lyrics.

[2] Nan Halperin played Jessie Jamieson, in pursuit of Jay Velie as Paul Revere.

[3] The James Boys, who were billed as the "Paul Whiteman Orchestra", played a specialty during the entr'acte.

Jessie Jamieson (Halperin) is out to get Paul Revere (Velie) and will not let the usual bedroom farce complications distract her from winning her man.
