Copeland and Payton

Location:
Theater:
Date:
The two colored fellows have a good idea in a Pullman dining car scene. They seem like able stage people, however the songs and talk fell far behind the idea. The big fellow has an excellent comedy style, while the other makes a very good "straight." The two will have a very good chance when they improve the manner of working up their comedy ideas, and also inserting better numbers.
