Lew Brice and Lillian Gonne

Location:
Theater:
Date:
The act was eighteen minutes long. This young duo open with a “Dutch” number with some wooden show stepping. Brice then imitates Bert William’s rendition of “Constantly”. Gonne sings, which is followed by an eccentric dance by Brice in Eton clothes. They finish with a duet and sing “Brass Band Ephriam Jones” for an encore. Gonne wears “cute little ‘pantalets'”.
"Constantly"; "Sweetey Sweet"; "Dramatic Rags"; "Brass Band Ephriam Jones"
The couple was called on for one encore.
The duo cannot speak their lines well. As "precocious youngsters" their work does not need to be taken too seriously, so they will fit in nicely.
