He retires to a summer mountain resort named Baldpate Inn, in the dead of winter, and locks himself in, believing he has the sole key. However he is visited during the night by a rapid succession of other people , including a corrupt politician, a crooked cop, a hermit, a feisty girl reporter, a gang of criminals, etc., none of whom have any trouble getting into the remote inn—there appear to be seven keys to Baldpate. McGee ends up getting caught up in the hijinks of his visitors and ends up getting no work done, or does he? This dramatization of Earl Derr Biggers’ novel was a success on Broadway, and remains one of George M. Cohan’s most popular plays. ****************************************************************** Imagination is the strongest nation on earth.
