It is a story dramatically told of a human, life In which "dope" becomes a tre- mendous factor. "Red Light Annie', is essentially a drama. An effective novelty of "Red Light Annie" Is the dividing of the first act into seven episodes. The curtain rises to show youthful newly weds leaving the little village for the big city.
