Sheet music for <i>Hawaiian Butterfly</i> from Andre Charlot's production of <i>Bubbly</i>, at the Comedy Theatre, the words by George A. Little and the music composed by Billy Baskette and Joseph Santly. The song was performed by Miss Teddie Gerard (1890-1942), published by Herman Darewski Music Publishing Co, London ca. 1917.
Bubbly opened at the Comedy Theatre in May 1917 and featured twelve sketches, or 'Bubbles', as they were billed. The public loved the light and frothy mixture of songs and sketches which were a much-needed antidote to the gloomy news about World War 1. The cast included the 25-year old Jack Hulbert, who went on to become a star of musical comedy. Bubbly was produced by André Charlot, the Frenchman who was one of the most prolific 20th century West End producers. He became famous for his series of intimate revues, some co-produced by the great showman C.B.Cochran.
