Gus Edwards’ Band Box Revue

37 min. f.s. spl. set. This company of juvenile entertainers put over their numbers in good style; also have a very pretty setting. The act is interesting and entertaining all the way through and closed big with their patriotic finale.

Lightener Sisters-Newton Alexander

The Lightener Sisters-Newton Alexander Revue closed and pleasantly shocked the customers with its lavish costume display, colorful ensembles and Winnie Lightener’s abandoned “nutting.” Newton Alexander has done himself proud with this production of his own authorship and composition and has provided a pleasant addition to the ranks of the rather abundant crop of revue turns extant in these parts of late.

Mento Moore and Macklin Megley

The sparkling personality of Miss Tilton flashed throughout Mento Moore and Macklin Megley’s “Chameleon Revue.” Her songs were amusingly done and her mimicry drew giggles.

“Rose Revue”

“Rose Revue,” on after five o’clock, has rough going at that hour and wasn’t strong enough to hold and wasn’t strong enough to hold the people in. The feeble singing of a man and woman, whose only right to appear as public entertainers was their agility as dancers, failed to keep the audience seated until they got going at top speed. And directly they did, they went off and permitted their pianist to do several selection for what seemed an interminable number of minutes, This act was badly placed – in fact the whole was topsy-turvy.

Jess Leighton’s Revue

Closing the first half was Jess Leighton’s Revue, with the lady doing a prima donna solo, playing the piano and act as an interlocutor for five men in blackface for a minstrel first part. They harmonized well, crack some gags, one does a wooden shoe dance and, as usual, the biggest man is the high tenor. Miss Leighton has a magnetic, cheerful, buxom personality and the act was well liked.

MacKay’s Scotch Revue

MacKay’s Scotch Revue offered the usual Scotch routine. Wee May MacKay’s character singing and band were the outstanding applause winners. The half dozen lassies are younger and prettier than the usual Scotch acts. It closed very good.

Harry Carroll and Co.

Harry Carroll and Co., headlining, ran away with the show, closing the first half. Following Mr. Carroll’s rhymed token of appreciation as insistent demand for another “speech” brought him out on one for a happily worded “impromptu.” The show had all the elements requisite of a good vaudeville entertainment and ran very smoothly.

Tom Brown’s Musical Revue

Tom Brown’s Musical Revue closed the show with a variety of musical instruments. They played, they sang and one member with a violin played and danced. They all kept those that had not seen the entire last performance until it was all over.

Hugh Skelly and Emma Heit

Hugh Skelly and Emma Heit closed the vaudeville. Skelly’s nut stuff and eccentric dance and Miss Heit’s double voice singing landed the team solidarity, although the talk and needs strengthening.

The Military Revue

The Military Revue, a sextet of girls of the regular Loew road show, offered their vaudeville singing and dancing routine as part of the revue, fitting in nicely. The girl leading scores individually with clever and speedy dancing. Altogether the Nelson-Chain revue has 24 girls which included the 10 Wright girls and the Military Revue’s half dozen.
