Singing.
Lang and Shaw are two boys trying to sing. They open with a French song, then each soloes, and they exit on a double. Though they jockeyed with bows they could not draw enough
for an encore. One of the boys has no idea of "phrasing." He sang a ballad on the explosive plan. The other did a Yiddish number well enough, but the song wasn't there. Besides the
number was merely rewritten with the sex reversed. It dragged along. Unless they improve their work and routine this couple will be fortunate to get the better small time.
