Ward and Curran

Location:

Date:
The act entitled “The Stage Door Tender” was twenty-seven minutes long. “Pop” is the stage doorman. Curran is first a Dutchman with a “funny dog”, then a girl who sings “What a Beautiful Dream”, and lastly, just John Curran.
"What a Beautiful Dream"
The audience held up the show until the two returned for another bow.
Twenty-seven minute sketch was too long. Ward and Curran have a "well fitting act to hang their individual work upon".
