The stage is cut off at about “five” by a gorgeous drop embroidered in gold upon a black velvet background in an intricate Japanese design.
All appear at the opening in splendid robes matching the drop and change to white tights. Ground tumbling and handstand work make up the act. At this the new organization excels, particularly in the latter department, where tey show a series of tricks which leads anything seen in a long time.
For novelty, attractive dressing and skillful acrobats the Okabe outfit stands close to the top.
