Lou Anger
14 min. Monologue in one. The German soldier. Very much after the style of Cliff Gordon and nearly as big a hit. Mr. Anger gives a lot of talk and I am confident drew some money to the house.
Charles Lovenberg’s Operatic Festival
26 min. Special setting. Presenting “Gypsy Life” and “A Carnival in Venice.” This is one of the best, if not the best, vocal acts we have played. The company is strong vocally, the episodes are well arranged, the act is well costumed and the ensembles are quite picturesque. Selections from the popular operas and some of the tuneful classics comprise the program. Our audience enjoyed the entire act and there were many recalls. It is strong enough to headline any bill.
Jack Connelly & Margaret Webb
20 min. Full stage. In a musical oddity entitles “A Stormy Finish.” There was little to the act except the finish, which is a very novel idea, illustrating the storm with trick effects, carrying everything off the stage, even to partially disrobing Webb.
Mignonette Kokin
11 min. Character songs and dances in one with moving picture screen, showing her making changes of costume in the dressing room and behind the scenes. Miss Kokin held her place admirably and won frequent encores.
Vernon
18 min. Ventriloquist. Opening in full stage and closing in one. Notwithstanding a plethora of ventriloquists this season, Mr. Vernon achieved his customary hit. His act is somewhat stereotyped but gets by nicely.
Galletti’s Educated Baboons
12 min. Full stage. This act has gone back and did not begin to get the applause it used to receive. The monkeys did practically nothing and were intractable. Their very unwillingness to perform, however, was the source of all the amusement they created.
Herzogs Horses
16 minutes, full stage. The horses were snowbound for sixty hours and in consequence their performances have not been good. The act, however, improved toward the end of the week.
Geo. Beban & Co.
24 minutes, full stage, special set. “The Sign of the Rose”. Mr. Beban’s act has been received with enthusiasm. I think he works under difficulties the support of his players must jar upon his artistic temperament. It is awful.
Albert Whelan
19 minutes, full stage. “Vocalist and whistler”. A big hit. If we get him again we will headline him.
Doherty and Harlow
15 minutes in one. Singing, dancing and some comedy. A very clever woman with some excess baggage in the way of a partner. The act scores heavily.
