Singing, comic dialogue, and instrumental playing.
Burns and Frabito, on fourth, changed spots with Georgie Price, the Italian team doing nicely with their songs, comedy and instrumental stuff. The smaller of the duo drops his wop dialect completely at times, possibly because he feels that the audience will understand him better. This isn't necessary, however, as it tends to destroy the character illusion that has been built up in the earlier part of the act.
