Nora Bayes

Date:
– Drop in one. 14 minutes. Comedienne and Vocalist. Making her first appearance here. The possessor of a good voice and closing with two really old songs she was able to interest her audience, and by the gingery way in which she worked, gained really good applause. She has rather a forward style of work, not particularly pleasing to an older theatre goer. Indeed I would say that she is very much accustomed to working clubs and concerts of that order. The style she portrays is not of the refined variety we aim at. Closed to good applause and earned a couple of recalls. 2 shows.
