The Beatrice Morrell
Sextet of female singers, with an artistic
blue color scheme of costuming and setting
and white wings, is a clean vocal offering, but
altogether too concerty for general vaudeville
assimilation. Four singers, a ‘cellist and
a harpist. While some work the others
move about “artistically.” draping themselves
about the piano, adjust the flower vases and
finish with arms about each other for a popular
medley. Those are the kind of acts that
argue—and truthfully—that they sing well,
dress neatly and otherwise disport themselves.
But it isn’t a vaudeville act in the strict
sense of the word.
