Singing and piano.
Man and woman whose forte is dress and double singing, the latter showing exceptional possibilities as a sort of refined-coon shouter. She looks wonderfully well, dresses with rather good taste and knows how to handle a light "rag" but should eliminate much of the arm gestures which only draw attention from herself and the number. The man makes a good appearance and they harmonize well in patter songs, he playing piano. The opening song is the best of the repertoire and gives them a flying start. They should begin to build on that immediately for this turn has unquestionable big time value if it is properly nourished. The English version of one number should be tabooed. It doesn't fit and the girl's dialect isn't there. But can be safely classed with some of the best of the modern singers and she looked like class from the front. They can go along nicely as the turn stands, but for their own benefit should commence to improve, for the possibilities are well worth the try. They scored nicely with the crowded house.
