kind of an act as he has done for several years with two new people as associates. As usual he burlesqued several of the acts ahead of him getting good laughs and his eccentric dressing brought screams from the audience. The act made good but the material showed signs of wear.
28 min. Assisted by Five Dancing Violin Girls. A musical comedy with plenty of flesh and color. Timberg attempts only a little bit of comedy but the production is full of action and music. An eccentric dance by the principal was a big applause winner and the violin-playing of Timberg and the girls brought good results. The piece is nicely staged and the girls wear attractive costumes. The act was a good sized hit.
18 min. Man and woman in comedy and song. The fellow does a lot of nut stuff and the girl is a good helper. The act got plenty of laughs and finished to a good hand.
“Maid of France.” 22 min. One of the most interesting and picturesque war sketches we have played and easily one of the biggest hits. It is entirely different from anything else offered and splendidly played by Miss Victor in the role of Joan of Are and four men in the roles of soldiers of the Allies. There is just enough comedy injected in the dialogue to lighten up the sketch and it scored solidly.
17 min. This is her first appearance and she held her spot in splendid shape. She sang several songs, two or three in character and all but one of them now. She had no trouble in getting liberal applause with each number and was brought back for an extra encore.
“The Lemon.” 19 min. This is a new skit with the author playing the principal role. Two men are employed and the story is a business transaction does in character comedy with a sentimental finished. It proved a good laugh-winner and closed to a good hand.
9 min. Man and woman in comedy talk and dancing. The man is a very clever dancer and acrobat and his eccentric stepping amused the audience as well as winning several rounds of applause. The woman does little more than feed the man’s comedy, but the act proved a good sized hit.
11 min. The remarkable posing of the dogs and horse makes it a very interesting as well as a pretty novelty and it furnished a very good opener.
15 min. A very high-class dancing act, prettily staged and dressed. Six numbers splendidly executed, the man being an exceptionally clever eccentric stepper and in the closing position, the act went big.
16 min. They have a big laugh-winner in their new military skit that is filled with funny dialogue. Hussey’s new songs brought a riot of laughter and the act closed to a big hand.
