Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe story involves the Rascals performing in a make-believe movie theater where they imitate Charles Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, Douglas Fairbanks, William S. Hart, Uncle Tom and the security guard character played by 'Gilbert, Dick'. The Chaplin imitation includes a gag repeated from Shoulder Arms (1918) wherein The Little Tramp disguises himself as a tree. The Fairbanks imitation (courtesy of Mickey Daniels) specifically refers to The Three Musketeers (1921). The Lloyd imitation borrows from Grandma's Boy (1922).
- GoofsThe copyright on the title screen is supposed to be for the year 1923. It is written in Roman numerals, but as "MDCCCCXXIII." That is not the correct way to write 1923 in Roman numerals. It should have been "MCMXXIII."

Featured review
fun Our Gang circus
Our Gang is sneaking a peak at the county fair. There are crazy stunts. The boys are chased away. They find some donkeys and come up with an idea. They start up their own circus for the neighborhood kids. This is the ninth short in the series. I love the old county fair attraction with the crazy stunts. The flipping cart is legit. Then I love the kiddie circus idea although that boy is really whipping that donkey. I like the Chaplin impersonation attempt. I wish it went longer. My favorite has to be the animal zoo. A giraffe has never looked cuter. It's the funniest bit in this short. This is good clean fun.
