Comedy songs and singing.
A colored couple both affecting eccentric dressing with a comedy purpose in mind The man tries a ballad, terribly slow. The woman follows in similar vein. The dragging tempo appears the main idea of the turn. Properly speeded it would run about a third faster. After eight minutes of songs there is some talk. The woman states she comes from abroad, explaining that that meant 135th street and Lenox. Vaudeville will neither gain nor lose anything as far as this act is concerned.
