The act is thirteen minutes long. “He does everything but shoot the eyelids off his young assistant.” Pisano shoots the lighted end of a cigarette in the assistant’s mouth, shoots targets held between the assistants forehead and finger, and breaks small targets on the stage. He also lights and extinguishes matches with shots.
His "showmanship... will carry him along in the big time vaudeville ranks."
