Ned Nye

Not solely a girl act since Nye occupies some of the act. Legitimate sucessor to Dan Daly and is very close in voice, looks, and pose but he allows his pose and voice to falter. Six girls are in the act, The Reid sisters have a dance all of their own. The “Swinging Girls” do not swing far enough out over the orchestra. The light effects were not properly worked,
One of the girls has a solo during the swinging and her heavy tremolo voice needs doctoring.
"Girl Act"
Act went very well and will work out to be a winner
