Richardson’s Posing Dogs
Mr. Richardson cues his trained dogs into poses.
3 Victors
The act was seven minutes long on the full stage.
Three men in red tights, athletic shirts, and trunks perform a standard acrobatic routine. They do some good “three-high” tricks, but none of them are original.
Senor Arrudi
The act was five minutes long.
Senor Arrudi is a “Spanish giant” dressed in Spanish peasant costume. He is announced as eight foot three inches tall. He enters the stage to the tune of “Oh You Beautiful Doll”. He stands and stares out into the audience while the announcer talks.
Childers and George
The act was fourteen minutes long.
A well-dressed man and woman do a short comedic skit with singing, dancing, and piano playing. The man does most of the work and does it smartly.
Minerva Coverdale and George White
The act was sixteen minutes long.
Coverdale and White sing and dance. They both do several costume changes. White sings a solo.
The Aeroplane Ladies
The act was nine minutes long on the full stage.
Three women have an aerial act similar to that of the Curzon Sisters. The only difference is that they perform aerial tricks in a novelty aeroplane. They sing in German accents and do some dancing. They then hang by their teeth holding wings and flowing draperies. One of the women sits in the plane for the rest of the performance.
Falls and Falls
The act was five minutes long on the full stage.
These comedy acrobats have an act similar to Rice and Prevost. For their finale, the clown sits on a chair which is balanced on three tables stacked on top of one another. He then tilts the chair backwards and does a back somersault, landing on his feet.
Gertrude Vanderbilt and George Moore
The act was fourteen minutes long.
Gertrude Vanderbilt and George Moore come together after having been with several different partners (Vanderbilt was with Clay Smith and Moore was with Laura Guerite and then Isabelle D’Armond before trying his hand as a single German comedian).
Vanderbilt and Moore sing solos and duets and dance. Vanderbilt changes from a “striking opening gown” to a brown Quaker costume with slits in the sides which reveal comedy tights and bloomers underneath. They also do an “audience number”.
The Marvelous Millers
The Marvelous Millers do a dancing routine. They perform a series of waltzes.
Harrison Armstrong Players
This sketch entitled “Hushed Up” was twenty-two minutes long.
This melodramatic sketch is similar to “many of the protean criminology sketches that were so prevalent around some time ago.”
