Onetta wears “Oriental” clothing and dances. She also does “iron-jawed” balancing of chairs. For her big finish, she does a “dervish-whirling dance” in which she balances one chair in her teeth and one in each hand. The chairs are all adorned with incandescent globes.
The act was eight minutes long.
She opens her acts with indifference. "More vivacity would help."
