Staley’s New Transformation Company
The setting is a cooperage.
Miss New York, Jr.
(May Ynir) She dresses neatly although not lavishly, with one exception. This is in her olio specialty with Eleanor Revere. Here both girls wore gowns of flaming share.
Miss Revere, the primma donna, has a soprano voice of value and makes a pretty and graceful stage picture, particularly in the burlesque, where she wore a gold bespangled gown and tights in the finale.
Fred Walton’s “Cissie’s Dream”
A new girl is seen in the part of the wax doll. She is Goldie Jobb, a plump little person apparently about 17 years old. She looks the part to perfection, and while there is no great training evidenced in her dancing, she carries off the incident by virtue of her charming presence and smiling enthusiasm.
Countess Olga Rossi
She dresses in a manner that appeals to an American as most “Frenchy,” particularly the full bust, low-cut corsage and laced-in waist..
The scene of the sketch might be placed in Central Park for the appearances. There is a background of green fields, in the foreground of which has been placed an imposing looking soda water fountain in full working order.
The Vassar Girls
the girls wear flowing college gowns
Beaumont’s Ponies
All the animals are undersized, directed by a gentleman looking trainer in evening clothes, who is mild of voice and quiet in manner.
Mabel Sinclair
She still sticks to the odd dressing, using brilliant red stockings where black ones would be much neater.
Mr. Dooley and the Land Agent
A dark stage for half a minute gives an opportunity to change drops and when the lights o up “Lemon City” is show. The flourishing metropolis is a desolate swamp with signboards to designate the locations of the various busy thoroughfares.
The Maerilles
He does a change from messenger boy clothes while the woman changes to a boy’s costume.
Danse De La Revenge
The Spanish dancer in the piece, which is a number of the “Parisian Widows” olio is La Tierro. Phillipe Du Faure is the bandit in this, as he was also in the other.
A third person, called Senor Garcia, appears, and there is knockabout finish, during which everything movable in the cabin interior setting is pushed over.
