Burton and Brooks

Location:
Theater:
Date:
2 shows, 26 min in 3, close in 1. In the comedy sketch, ‘Always in the Way,’ which is really same as the vehicle that they had last year with the exception of the change in the line of talk. In my estimation, it is a very poor act for the 2-show section. They did 26 minutes and they will do it tonight for the simple reason that I need the time, but audience was all tired out and their ‘wit’ did not appeal to them at all. Don’t care if I never see the act again.
