Year: 1911

Mrs. Gardner Crane

In her farce “The Little Sunbeam” a very good farce, full of some very funny situations, with a good story running all the way through. Went good. 29 min. in one and a half. Own act.

Williams and Segel

Novelty dancers, man and woman. A very neat dancing act which went very good. 10 min. in one.

Lutz Bros.

The armless man assisted by his brother and lady. The feats that this man does with feet very remarkable and makes a great novelty act. They carry their own setting which adds a very pretty surrounding for the act. Went very good. 14 min. full stage.

Donovan and Arnold

Singing and talking. It has been some time since I have seen any act here get the applause they did. Donovan seems to never grow old. 22 min. in one.

Ed. Todd

Cartoonist working with all paints. His drawings are good but he tries to introduce foreign air to act by affecting broken German which I have cut out. Made a fair opening act. 15 min. in two.

The Sensational Boises

A most excellent casting act consisting of three men and one woman. Executed tricks each of which got over in great shape. The people are tastefully dressed and the act all in all is decidedly worth while. Finished strong. 8 minutes, garden in 5.

Jolly, Wild & Co.

Two men, one woman in a variety skit, “First Aide to the Melancholy.” The woman does a “straight”, one man comedy, the other an English “Johnnie.” The work consists of singing, talking and piano playing, all of which is good. The act held the attention from the beginning and made a most favorable impression throughout. Finished strong. 18 minutes, conservatory in One.

Lou Anger

“The German Soldier.” His dialect monologue went very well from beginning to end. He won a lot of laughs, held the attention all the way through and finished strong. Street in One, 14 min.
