A man and a woman. The woman works from the trapeze and the man does comedy from the bounding net. The woman’s best trick is walking across a brass ladder between the uprights but is spoiled by her wearing clamps in the instep of her shoe. It should be done with toe walking alone.
The clack of the clamps is audible when she walks.
