The Gladiators

Location:
Theater:
Date:
Type:
14 Mins.; Four. Neat idea the young men have in using the old Roman gladiatorial ring background and gladiatorial raiment to show off their hand-to-hand balancing wares. The two chaps have an excellent routine, one similar to previous exhibitions by other teams on the big time, but effectively done. The Gladiators, however, have several lifts that are different and on these got big applause.
