A Frenchy, crazy sort of an offering which won a lot of laughs but at times seemed too long drawn out. A very funny finish in 1. They work the offering out in great shape, making a strong finish. Special set in 3, close in 1; 24 minutes.
The best quiet comedy couple in vaudeville. Get better results with less effort than any team I ever saw. One long laugh and a strong finish. 20 minutes, street in 1.
In the well known sketch, “A Legitimate Hold Up.” The act scored heavily all the way through, the work of the three people being absolutely O.K. Great laughing act. 18 minutes, opens in 1, closes in Fancy in 3.
A thorough artist from head to foot. The piano playing is the secondary part of his entertainment. What he introduces is effectively done, but as a story teller and monologist he is one of the best we have had for a long time. A genuine hit all the way through. Finished strong. 33 minutes, C.D.F.
Juvenile impersonator. Opens with a college boy number, follow with sleepy little girl song, closes with street gamin number. Quite a clever little woman who got by in fairly good shape. Moderately strong finish. 16 minutes, opened in 1, goes to 2, closes in 1.
Novelty juggler with black face comedy assistant. Introduces a lot of tricks which held the attention, the comedy element of the act being the demolishing of crockery by the comedian. A very good act which gave satisfaction. Closed strong. 16 minutes, palace in 4.
A wonderful casting act that held the attention all the way through. First class performers with lots of applause. Hard to beat. Garden in 5, 8 minutes.
A genuine fun riot. The hit of the bill without question. These young people all make an excellent appearance. They are hard workers and scored individually and collectively. They had a hard time getting away from the audience. Could hardly imagine an act going bigger. 19 minutes, olio in 1.
Notwithstanding the hard work of this troup the act at no time gained any applause to speak of. It held the interest, however, but the finish was only fair. Considering the work and the manner in which the act is put on, I can’t account for its not going better, but it must be a case of the audience not particularly caring for it. The offering is in very good condition, so far as appearance is concerned, and really there is no fault to be found. Perhaps it will pick up during the week. 5 special acts, 20 minutes.
In “A Lamb on Wall Street.” Dramatic comedy sketch and a very good one. Mr. Coote is thorough artist, and his two associates, man and woman, proved thoroughly satisfactory. There many laughs, the comedy interest was maintained throughout, and the act achieved a good strong finish. Library in 3, 22 minutes.
