This Piano-Act was sixteen minutes long.
Quive and McCarthy are musical comedy actors who are attempting their first vaudeville act. The act opens with McCarthy at the piano and Mary Quive on top of it. They sing a love song with good lyrics. McCarthy then sings a solo to give Quive some time to change. They sing “Loveland” for their finale and “Circus Day” for an encore. McCarthy is tall, handsome, and wears dress clothes.
"Loveland"; "Circus Day"
Quive and McCarthy both dress well and look good together. One expects musical comedy names to present a bland offering of popular songs, but the act proved they can be notable stars and present vaudeville with something interesting. The act is classy and the pair were a big hit.
