Irish Magician and Illusionist. 25 min. F.S. Does not open or close in 1. A very clever man with a fine line of novelties in the magic line, and some stunners in illusion. Could hold any but the star spot in the 2-a-day section. Uses a velvet drop in two during part of his act to arrange set for the illusions which are immense. Line of talk sprightly and amusing, with a little Irish brogue which heightens interest. Act shows long training, the paraphernalia being brilliant and showmanlike. Act includes ‘Miser’s Dream,’ ‘crystal Trunk Mystery,’ and ‘Cremation,’ all excellent and appealing strongly to all parts of the house. A Safe feature.
