Laura Burt

This was Miss Burt’s initial appearance in vaudeville in this house since she was leading lady for Henry Irving, consequently her work was watched with a great deal of interest. She opened with Field’s ‘Seeing Things at Night’ then gave the monologue which she formerly did in vaudeville, introducing the character hat business, which brought a number of laughs. As an encore for this she did an imitation of a London female serio comic singer in costume, which was bad, and she will substitute something else. Miss Burt proved herself a thorough artist, very versatile, and has an attractive personality. 17 Olio in 1.
