I have never heard more spontaneous or greater applause given any act than was given this on the finale. It is an act that is bound to draw money. Already it is the talk of the town. In spite of this I want to say that the act could be materially improved by much less talk (that amounts to little) and much more singing which amounts to a great deal, because they have the voices to do it. I can’t understand why they continue the act in its present shape when it could easily improved so greatly. However it will draw the money and there is no lick coming. 32 min. full stage, 2 shows.
