Mama’s Darling Boy

An overgrown youth as played by Curtis brings considerable laughter. There is no singing until the finale in "one," when each of the trio has a solo. The singing makes a distinct hit, the audience obliging many encores.
Twenty -four minutes is too long for the act and the earlier scenes should be chopped, particularly the "chasing." Miss Palmer looked very well in her long dresses, singing admirably. Mr. Hamilton has a pleasant voice, while Mr. Curtis is always assured of a hit with his lyric tenor. "Mama's Darling Boy," with the present cast, is the sort of act vaudeville managers like.
