In her original creation, the character of “Madam Sans Gene,” in the one-act playlet “The Washerwoman Duchess” with splendid cast, including Waiter Wilson, Mitchell Harris and Frank Woolfe. “The Washerwoman Duchess” is a tabloid version of the well known play, “Madam Sans Gene,” which Miss Kidder made famous. The play cleverly condensed, with much attention paid to the details of costuming, manners and stage generally. Miss Kidder displayed unusual enthusiasm and at all times had the audience on edge right up to the finish. I think this sketch will take first prize, as it is one of the best we have had this season. Miss Kidder was heartily applauded on her entrances with tremendous applause on the close of her playlet and finally compelled to take a bow in front of the curtain. Twenty minutes, full stage.
