Welch, Montrose Trio

Location:
Date:
YYH 2. This is an off-shoot of the original Keno, Welch & Montrose act. It is a fine comedy acrobatic specialty, introducing some novelties which they have probably stolen from some European performer, as they have just returned from there. They have a revolving table on which they do a lot of clever stunts, and they do the foot and head balancing originally done by the Eretto Troupe, and instead of going up on chairs and tables with it as the latter troupe did they go up 12 or 14-foot parallel ladders and then come down again. A mighty good act. 12 mins. full stage.
