14 Mins.; One. Sabrey D’Orsell is billed as “The Winter Garden Favorite in a Remarkable Song Review,” but she isn’t living up to the billing. Sabrey may have been a fave at the Garden, but she will have to change her style before becoming a fave in vaudeville, big or little. Miss D’Orsell has a voice, a lyric soprano of coloratura quality that reminds one somewhat of Bessie Abott. But Miss D’Orsell possesses none of that elusive quality called personality. She impressed her audience wrongly at the start, conveying a ort of a “I know I’m too good” idea over the footlights. She is singing three numbers, opening with a Scotch number, following with another semi-classical song, and closes with “Annie Laurie.” There seems to be entirely too much of a sameness in her selections, and she could vary to advantage by the introjection of a high class ballad. She should also be coached in the manner of taking bows.
