There has been a great deal of comment about this act but it is not nearly as bad as it has been made out. I think I have discovered the greatest trouble with the act, a fault which they are going to remedy at once. I will give a later report afterwards. The trouble is, they are doing all their work with the piano and unlike most other piano acts, in order to be able to do their other work the piano has to be considerably up stage, and consequently the musical accompaniment is lost. They are going to do their work with the orchestra here, possibly tonight or as soon afterwards as they can and I have doubt that with the orchestration to lift it up there will be a great difference in the act. 16 Min. F.S.
Had orchestra at night show, making great improvement in act. Gained considerable applause. I understand this is a different act than they have done, except the last three days in Union Hill.
