Poettinger’s Swedish Ladies Quintette

They appear in National costume, carry their own setting, which makes a very pretty stage picture. They are very fair singers, and the act throughout is a pleasing one to the greater part of the audience. Full stage, 15 min.

8 Vassar Girls

This is a very novel act. It opens in one, four girls enter, two with clarinets, one with a flute, and the other with a bassoon, and they play some very pretty music. They exit and then return with two more, all of them saxophones. This is also very pretty, their music being exceptionally good, and the girls being bright and pleasing looking in every way. They make another exit and the whole eight appear playing brass instruments, cornets, trombones, etc. and for a finish they do an electrical display, four of the girls appearing as boys in knickerbockers, and four with short dresses. They have small electric lamps scattered around their wardrobe and different circuits are worked alternately, making a very pretty effect. At the rear of the stage are some ornamental streamers to which are attached many electric lamps, and a lot of streamers hang from the center of the stage after the fashion of a May-pole, and for a finish all of these lamps are illuminated as well as those on the wardrobes, and it really makes about as attractive and novel picture as I have ever seen. They are pretty sure to make a big hit on the circuit. 23 min, open in one, close full stage.

Poettinger’s Ladies Swedish Quintette

This is a rather pretty act by five women. It is one of the foreign acts that Mr. Keith booked while in Europe. They [sic] carrying their own setting which represents a sort of valley in Sweden, with a set house on one side of the stage and a few ‘props’ scattered around which gives atmosphere to the act. They sing quite nicely indeed, doing two songs in what I presume is the Swedish language, and then another (’My Creole Girl’) in a sort of broken English, which is quite effective and close with a little dancing. It is not a great act, but still a pleasing one, and as the costumes are somewhat new to vaudeville stage it makes a very acceptable offering. 18 min, full stage.

The Right Vassar Girls

Open in drapery in one, then to full stage, 21 minutes. The act opens with four attractive and refined looking girls, two playing clarinets, one flute and one bassoon, the girls being dressed in the pearl gray cap and gown of Vassar College. Their work on these instruments was well received by our audience, interspersed as it is with a little singing; next six girls appear playing saxophone and presenting much of the latest opera music and popular song hits, which were also well received. Then the eight appear clad in the same raiment, four playing cornets and four trombones, working up a strong finish for their ‘Electric Dance,’ which is done in darkened house and stage, and scored an undoubted hit, being frequently interrupted by storms of applause and closing very strong.
