Blocksom & Burns

Location:
Theater:
Date:
14 min. FS. Open and close in 1. Owing to the fact that we were very shy on comedy, much to our surprise, this act went immensely. It is no the act for this place on the bill, however, and it will have to be shifted. The acrobatic part is good, and the absurdity of the difficult feats being done by the aid of a wire from the flies, got the crowd in spite of the fact that it had been done here by the same people many times before. Passed off much better than we expected, and the laughter and applause were frequent with a big hand at the close.
