His wife assists him.
Singing, his wife does some imitations and sings herself, some comedy. An accompanist.
"All for the Sake of Publicity," "I Left My Sally by the Suez Canal," "I'm on My Way to Dublin Bay," "Publicity," and "I Hear You Calling Me."
Miss Cunningham is handling her material very well for so early in the transformation, and displays latent humor that will be handy when she is more confident. As Miss Cunningham is a corking looking red headed girl on the stage, with a voice, and is carrying an accompanist she should go through easily. It might be preferable though for her to open with "Calling Me" or any other straight high grade ballad, than going right through the "comedienne" portion without a break, though it must be said, vaudeville audiences will be able to detect that Miss Cunningham has a voice without the aid of any high grade ballad.
