Spook Minstrels

Location:
Theater:
Date:
2 shows, 20 min in 1. This act has been described in other reports. It made an excellent impression, although it got on nearly half an hour later than scheduled. Men working behind the sheet cannot make themselves distinctly heard in all parts of large house like this, and I think it would be vastly improved if they eliminated the jokes altogether which can easily be done by cutting the film. I am going to suggest this to the manager who is here with it. The signing of ‘My Rosary’ by the quintet at the close was one of the most pronounced hits of the show.
