[New Act] Acrobatic, 10 mins; full stage. Man and woman. Both are contortionists and ground tumblers. The routine, however, is away from the usual, the team utilizing steel hoops, which they crawl through singly and together at a high rate of speed. The idea is an elaboration of the passing of a tight fitting hoop over the body used by contortionists as a single trick for years.
In this act every conceivable phase of the trick is brought out in a way that makes for novelty. The feature stunt has both squirming rapidly in and out of a small hoop apparently scarcely big enough for either to crawl through. The act went over, opening the show at the Prospect. It should fit nicely anywhere as a somewhat different opening act of the silent variety.
