In a one act musical fantasy entitled “Thebe”. Open full stage-2 special sets. There are ten people in this act, nine girls and Mr. Rock, whose singing is only fair. Mr. Rock came to us with a lot of black drapery which he used in his first number, which leadsone to their they are going to do black art. After the first performance I asked Mr. Rock is reason for having the drapery and he could not show me any. We cut it out and I think it helped the act considerable. They are not worth the money and will just get by, surrounded by a good bill.
