Jean Granese and Co. is an audience act. Miss Granese uses two “wop” plants, the frame-up resembling the Frank Sabini act and also Al Shayne turn. One of the “wops” in the Granese act has a tenor voice that suggests grand opera, and which will advance its owner rapidly when he learns how to use it properly. Right now he strains too much. Miss Granese delivers her numbers easily and with nice stage presence. Several duets with the other audience plant playing piano accompaniments stopped the show. It’s an excellent singing turn and the earlier section holds plenty of sure comedy.
