2 shows, 15 min. full stage. Ten young women with ‘handsome’ scenery and stage effects, in songs and dances. I put this act in all my Ads as the headliner of the show, and it fell down worse then anything I have ever witnessed in this house. Two of the young women simply stood on the stage and did not know what to do with hands or feet. They were guyed by the audience and even laughed at. Unless a new company has been substituted, I can’t for the life of me see how reports have been given so favourably on the act. We closed them with the first show.
