Gussie Francis and Company

Location:
Theater:
Date:
The picks wear tuxedos and satin Knickerbockers.
Ms. Francis has a high, clear voice. Backed up by four picks.
Her voice is over-educated for coon singing. The first number started the act along nicely, but the effect was injured somewhat by the use of a polite love song which followed. The use of one of the boys as a comedian might give relief from the straight musical character of the offering, but following its first showing small changes of this sort will doubtless be made. As it stands the number is picturesque and offers a better grade of music than the average of its class.
