Mon Amour

The duo of Miss Amelia Stone and her husband Mr. Armand Kaliss has grown significantly as they finally take vaudeville seriously in their new opera. The performance was reviewed on the front page of three Chicago dailies at a time when only a grand opera opening “makes” the front page.

Mabel Berra

Mabel Berra, a veteran of vaudeville, returns with a new act involving a “boy wonder” pianist who only plays classical tunes, “passing up rag entirely.” Berra performs five songs with a costume change for each.

Adelaide Norwood

Miss Norwood’s venture into vaudeville proved successful despite her selection of “heavy material.” Focusing primarily on operatic selections, Norwood was able to hold the crowd while in a next to closing position. Her vocal gift helps Norwood gain respect in one of vaudeville’s most difficult niches.

Frank Hartley

The young juggler Frank Hartley made a district impression on the audience at the American. Performing without assistance, Hartley provided an entertaining program that included an interjection of comedy while juggling both light and heavy objects.

The Musikal Girls

“The Musikal Girls” are a five piece parlour act made up of recruits from the Fadettes. Despite the awful set design and haphazard organization these women were able to pull together a solid performance, winning an encore and several bows from their fifth avenue audience.
