Dorothy Jardon

Singing and piano accompaniment.

Selections from "Madame Butterfly," an Irish medley, and a Spanish song.

Miss Jardon was as much in favor with the Bushwick audience as anyone of her caliber could be over there.

Other than the voice, Miss Jardon has looks, gowns and class in herself, besides a personality that gets over the footlights, along with her voice, and is as much liked. Miss Jardon is not the customary high grade songstress, who sings and sings and fades away. This girl has a certain dash and carriage that protrude beyond the mere mechanical "singing act" and this is what makes of her, not forgetting her fame or reputation gained through musical productions, a vaudeville number of merit, on the billing and on the stage. This week at the Bushwick Miss Jardon with an operatic selection from "Madame Butterful," characterizing it in dress and adornment as nearly Japanesy as may be necessary, rapidly changing to a silvered gown for a ballad, after which comes an Irish mixture in another gown, and a Spanish number to finish, appropriately costumed, with a light, airy encore song. George Harris is the grand piano accompanist, with one solo on the instrument. She's a desirable turn, and more classy the vaudeville audience she plays before, the better she will be accepted. Dorothy Jardon has everything, excepting a route probably, and she should have that.
