La Belle Trio

Location:
Theater:
Date:
Comedy musical act. 9 min. in 3. 3 shows. On at 6:50 (opens and closes in 1. Short singaphone feature in 2.) Three men, one working straight, one Dutchman and the third “Buster”. Act leads off with some conundrums in ministrel style, followed by songs which are fairly well rendered, and got good applause. The singing is the best part of this act, and each selection was well received. Act should be cut down as it is a little too long. Held down this place very well, notwithstanding. Cut: “every time he laughed he looked half undressed” Caruso joke.
