“The New Leader.” 36 min. F.S. Received an ovation today for one of the most original acts on the seemy side of stage life that has ever appeared here. From the opening right through to the very funny close, when the German Leader smashes his violin over the head of the stage manager, there is constant laughter, and the finish was big. There is a little thread of romance running through the fun which interests the audience and gives the new leader the halo of heroism in a humble way. Mr. Mann’s support is all that could be wished for, “Props” being good and the “sister” act particularly funny.
