The act was three minutes long on the full stage.
The Bounding Owens do a fast routine of ground tumbling, hand-to-hand and shoulder-to-shoulder balancing, and trampoline work.
The act has set a record for the most done in the least amount of time in American vaudeville. They managed to insert some excellent tricks into a short period of time by simply avoiding any stalling. To the audience, three minutes is an ideal amount of time for an act of this kind. Their costumes will keep this act on the small time.
