The Aerial Mitchells do a breakaway
ladder act that has some good
work in the performance of the two
young people, with the girl of the
couple owning as pretty a figure as
vaudeville displays. She wears full
acrobatic tights, but neatly broken to
remove the fleshing or union suit effect.
The man goes in for comedy, in
make-up and work. The boy dressed
as neatly as his partner would make a
very attractive looking act, with the
added interest of having a girl performing
this kind of acrobatics.
Their
breakaway idea at the finish is different
and better than the others. When
the act becomes shaped and finally set
it will be the best breakaway ladder
turn in the business, competent to
open or close big time bills.
