Monday night’s performance got away at eight sharp with the overture, followed by six minutes of Kinograms, after which the Johnson, Baker and Johnson trip pulled down a combination applause and laugh hit with the club juggling and hat throwing. They started the show speedily, only to have it slowed considerably by the rather dull early section of the musical routine of the Hughes Dup. The piano and cornet opening, followed by the cornet duo, seemed to take all the pep out of the proceedings. Later with the banjo routine and the popular stuff on the saxophone at the close the act pulled out with a corking applause return from the upper sections.
