Roshanara

"Roshanara makes her bid for vaudeville popularity on the strength of her long arms, which have a snakelike appearance that helps her put over a creepy reptile dance at the close that is a trifle different from other dancers of her ilk." "Roshanara first offers the incense dance followed in turn by the village dance, the warrior's dance and the snake dance."

"Just when one reaches the conclusion that the four corners of the earth have been fine combed for classic and native dancers along comes Roshanara from England to prove there are still a few left." "Tall and slender but fair of face, the way she uses her arms shows that she has been practicing her art longer than overnight." "Roshanara deserves all that she can get with the native dance thing at this late hour."
