Year: 1909

Liane de Lyle

On at 1:58, 9 minutes full stage. This is an exceptionally clever couple doing stunts with billiard balls. Made a great opening act this afternoon.

Annette Hellermann

I think we can say for her about what the other houses have in the way of commendation, but we are doubtful about the act being worth the money paid for it, the trouble and expense and time to put it on being taken into consideration. We offer no criticism or disparagement.

Ray Cox

New songs, retaining the baseball number, and was received with warm approval. In one.

Warmbath

“27 Months in the Arctic”. This man spent a great deal of time with both Cook and Peary, talks the Eskimo language and is as familiar with the arctic as any of the other explorers. He took about five minutes in introductory talk, then showed about 50 slides with the stereopticon, illustrating scenes in the polar regions. Closed with a scene we built for him and showed and explained an exhibition of the animals, sleds, dogs and many things showing the habits and customs of the people. He will draw us a splendid large patronage all week and is a hit. Opens in one, and closes full stage.

Pringle and Whiting

These young men call their act “Breaking into Vaudeville”. Their patter, solo and duet numbers are unusually attractive, best of comedy, and made a great big hit. Good any position on any bill. In one.

Louis Guertin

This young fellow furnishes a novelty, advertising himself “The World’s Champion High and All Round Jumper”. Exceptionally good for this position.

Eight Geisha Girls

15 minutes, Full Stage. A very pretty novelty act consisting of singing, dancing and some little talk, which is cute. The girls are attractive looking in their beautiful costumes and I feel sure they will draw some money this week.

Makerenko Troupe

15 minutes full stage. A good singing and dancing act. Handsomely costumed. Going splendidly. Russian Singers and Dancer. “The Merry Gypsies”.
