Man an [sic] a woman in an acrobatic comedy. The woman makes a pleasing appearance and goes through some fairly good acrobatic and gymnastic dancing. The man works in eccentric make-up and is a fair acrobat. While their routine is good, they don’t seem to have the ginger or succeed in getting laughs. They finish with the “Melrose Fall” using four tables, which sends them off to good applause, but not as good as the “original Melrose Fall.” However, they manage to open the show fairly well. Thirteen minutes, full stage.
