In “Misam’s Court Dancer.” 17 min. A big dancing spectacle presented by B. St. Denis, a brother of Ruth St. Denis in the act she presented in vaudeville. The present offering includes six other dancers and there is a pantomime story staged from the tales of Mohammedan Court. It is a spectacular and highly colored offering and shows something new along this line of dance productions.
“The Unexpected.” 26 min. A real dramatic gem for vaudeville. It is built around the theme of crook play and carried through right up to the very finish by the three principals concerned. The climax is that the sketch turns out to be a rehearsal. It is a splendidly written vehicle with lots bright lines in it and full of “business” and it scored an emphatic hit.
14 min. In their drawing-room specialty, called, “At Home.” This is a high-class musical act by the two girls who have a line of songs different from the usual run and they sing them in an original and distinctly entertaining way. They were a very big hit, being called back to make a little speech of thanks.
20 min. This is the dog that was recently starred in Cohan & Harris’ production of “Young America.” His routine consists of performing things asked by the audience as well as his master and his tricks differ entirely from the ordinary shown by performing dogs. He held the strictest kind of attention and registered a distinct hit. An excellent novelty for any bill.
16 min. This man and woman who were regular visitors a few years ago who have increased their act to four persons, using two women who play the piano and violin. The principals sing a couple of ballads and finish with a medley of old time songs. It is a good looking and classy musical act and was very well received.
“The Pierrot Juggler.” Carries a special setting. Painted yellow and black. The setting and props the way they were arranged made a very nice setting on the stage. Full stage. 11 minutes. Went good.
Juvenile entertainers. Two boys and a girl. Singing, talking and good comedy. The yougher [sic] of the boys has a very fine tenor voice. His singing took great with the audience. Special set in two, closed in one. Went great. 18 minutes.
13 min. This is the first time this blackface comedian has played this house and he was a big laughing and applause hit. His material, while a bit loud, was very funny and he kept the audience in a roar of laughter during the whole time he occupied the stage, being forced to answer to several bows at the finish.
25 min. This well known premier dancer did four members including her famous toe dance finish, all of which went over with the usual big applause. She carries an orchestra of six musicians which played several ragtime numbers between the dances adding considerably to the success of Miss Clayton’s act. She finished to a big hand.
27 min. A one-act sketch by John B. Hymer. This is an unusual comedy employing three girls and a man, the story being staged in the bedroom of a girls’ seminary, it is a delicate theme, splendidly handled for comedy purposes and kept the audience amused from start to finish, closing to a good hand.
