‘On the School Playgrounds’

Location:
Theater:
Date:
21 min, f.s. Bart McHugh’s production. Local act here and this helped, but act had plenty of snap and action to it with a lot of slapstick comedy that gets over in good shape through the clever handling by the man. The latter is also a good eccentric dancer and makes the ‘Hinkey Dee’ number go strong. There is a woman with good voice and seven girls who sing and dance well. A burlesque wedding ceremony proved a screaming hit at the finish and the act scored strongly.
