Taciano

Location:
Date:
Taciano makes his appearance in an evening gown, prima donna fashion. Even did not the billing disclose his sex, his appearance would.
But his voice carries out the illusion perfectly. He changes to male baritone in the middle of his first number and sings in his natural voice several times before removing the wig and assuming his natural pose and stride.
The impersonation makes a much better act than the straight offering, and the tinging should carry it through easily
