The act was six minutes long on the full stage. The Agadis troupe consists of about nine acrobats who are purportedly Arabic, though one looks suspiciously like an American and another looks Japanese. They begin with a pyramid trick in which the understander supports the other eight men. Their routine then consists of twisters, somersaults, handsprings, and one-handed and two-handed cartwheels. Two of the men do some “clever single work.”
The Agadis Troupe works fast, which is an asset to the act. They will succeed wherever other "Ali bands" have not performed.
