A man and woman is a singing a [sic] dancing act. The act opens with Lynch’s burlesque illustrated songs which somehow never seem to go as well as they ought to. The idea is very clever and the assumed seriousness with which he treats it should, in the natural order of things, I think, appeal to the audience, but while they evidently appreciate it, he somehow fails to reach them properly. It will undoubtedly go better in the evening. Incidentally he favors us with some dancing that is pretty nearly as artistic as John Ford’s. 17 min, open in one, going to full stage, and then closing in one.
