Dancing, special stage setting. Costume changes.
Accompanying orchestra. Singing.
George East, surrounded and supported by a special orchestra, a duo of singers and the McGinnis Brothers, along with a rather attractive stage setting, has built a decidedly novel vaudeville production around his terpsichorean ability, East appearing throughout in female garb with a different change for each appearance. The arrangement is especially well worked out, without any time loss and with continual action from beginning to end. The finale brings the entire company into action with some scenic effects that round out the offering nicely. East makes an attractive "woman," displays some nifty gowns and holds the turn up alone with his toe dancing. The continuous action is also helpful. It's away from the stereotyped dancing production, novel because of East's impersonation and nicely constructed. It went over big at the Fifth Avenue.
