These two old time performers seem to have got a new lease of life, and the offering that they gave us this afternoon I consider really better than anything they have ever done. Ward manages to extract a good deal of humor out of his character of the judge, and while Curran’s voice is not as good as it used to be, he still seems to get hold of the audience in a way; and in his characteristic way as two different persons really develops quite a bit of ability. The weakest part of their act is the close in one which they really ought not to do, but as it is very valuable to use we have got to stand for it. 29 minutes, open full stage, close in one. YRR.
