Mlle Belle Veola

Location:
Theater:
Date:
Song and Acrobatic. 9 min. in 1. 3 shows. This is a pretty girl who lacks a certain amount of grace, but at the same time a very skillful contortioniste. Her singing is not up to the standard and the dancing is more in the nature of contortion work than straight dancing. The final stunt, passing through three rings at the same time, good a good hand.. This act must be dressed differently to make a more pleasing appearance, as the Mother-Hubbard style of gown did not do at all. Held the place and went off to some comforting applause. Good act for an early place on the bill, but would never do father down.
