No. 5-' A Double Double-Cross'
Cast
The action of the play takes place in the North Side, Chicago, apartment of Jake Perelli
Production by John Richmond
In the course of his exploits Alonzo MacTavish certainly gets about the world, and this week you will meet him in a new crime environment, namely, that of American gangsterdom. The issue at stake on this occasion is the Scarsfield Emerald, and the double-cross that is carried out between Jake Perelli and Alonzo certainly leaves nothing to be desired from the dramatic point of view.
