Coakley & McBride

Location:
Date:
Type:
Blackface dancers and comedians. Coakley is to my mind as good a step dancer as there is in the business and McBride almost as bad as Coakley is good. Their comedy is rather weak. The act may be rated as good for the salary it gets but should not hold down the place I am obliged to give them in this show. 20 min. in one, 2 shows.
