Sunny South

Date:
Well-known colored act, ten people.  The only fault I have to find with this act is the dressing of the two principals, who evidently want to make the fact stand out that they are “principals”, and for that reason want to wear white people’s clothes.  This to my mind detracts considerably from the act.  They opened very quietly, but not badly, but their finish was a terrific hurricane, giving them several curtain calls.  A very good act.  18 min. full stage, 2 shows.
