Man & Boy. In 4 woods. Time 11. Very skillful balancing on the trapeze. Too quiet for an opener. Closes with some foot juggling while playing a violin at the same time.
3 men. F.S. Time 7. Very skilful and very funny comedy bar performers. Ideal closing feature.
In 1. Time 31. Miss Tanguay has stunning new costumes and to my mind the best songs she has yet used. She sang 11 songs and gave one recitation. An unqualified “riot.”
F.S. 3 men, 5 women. Time 11. Russian singers and dancers. A flashy act lavishly costumed. They open with very good singing. Their dancing, with the exception of great work by one man, seemed a little below par.
In 1. Time 14. Singing monologist. Doyle’s work is clean cut and highly effective. His material is immense—of the highest possible order. His eccentric delivery helps out considerably.
F.S. Time 12. Woman assistant. A genius in shadow picture making. Big hit.
2 men. In 1. Time 11. Excellent dancers.
Time 6. F.S. One of the best casting acts in the business. They have some new and thrilling work.
Time 15. Opens in 2, most of the time in 3 with a transparent drop behind which changes are made. She impersonates London chappies. Her enunciation is poor, her voice does not carry well. She dances fairly well. The act did not take well and applause was infrequent.
Time 15. 3 men, 1 woman. C.D.F. “An Unlucky Star.” A Big hit. The story starts seriously and then turns to screaming farce and travesty. The turn comes quickly and as a big surprise. Very clever.
