Merrill & Otto
This is a very nice little offering, although it is a pretty hard spot for them. They did not get their usual encore for their song and dance at the finish of their act. 17 min. in one.
Neil O’Brien & Co.
Six men, all black face, in about as funny an act as we ever played. The audience were simply rolling out of their seats with laughter. 22 min. long opening in one, close in F.S.
Linden Beckwith
Miss Beckwith made a pronounced hit with some songs well rendered. Her appearance is very striking. All in all she is well worth playing. 12 min. in one.
Josselins
A very pretty trapeze act that was well received. 11 min. F.S.
Doherty’s Poodles
An attractive little dog act, all right in this spot. 10 min. F.S.
Frank Mayne
In “The Third Degree.” An intensely dramatic sketch, four people, a very capable company. Mr. Mayne’s portrayal of seven different characters very good. Big hit. 26 min full stage.
Six Gypsy Singers
3 men, 3 women, with own drop representing a gypsy camp. Went good. 16 min. full stage.
James M. Cullen
“The Men from the West.” Songs and stories. Very good line of stuff and gets his audience from the start. Went good. 12 min. in one.
Katherine Caterman and Co.
Comedy sketch “Their Weight in Gold.” Four people. This sketch has some very funny situations, which are worked up very good and drew a good many laughs. It dragged a little toward the finish but I believe after it gets in shape it will prove to be a very good comedy sketch. 24 min. full stage.
Marie Sparrow
“The Irish Song Bird.” Comedy singing and stories. Went good. 14 min. in one.
