2 shows, 18 min. full stage—A finely staged act, and the best burlesque acting ever offered on the stage. It gives a fair line on what Weber & Fields will have to do in the way of educating the amusement seekers in the city up to their style of entertainment, for it was plainly evident that the audience this afternoon was guessing the major portion of the time what it all meant. I must confess they won more applause than I expected, the funny points being caught on to quickly, though some of the best things were not appreciated. If Weber & Fields are successful, it’s simply gives us another field to draw upon, as we can play more acts of this description.
