Premiere Danseuce Classique. Dances four numbers – very classy. Change of costume for each number — carry two drops. Went poor both afternoon and evening. Her act is all right but is not suitable for this place — don’t like this kind of dancing. 10 min. full.
Man and woman in an act of gymnastics. Act an graceful and prettily done as anything we have ever had. They held the audience intact at both performances, received plenty of applause throughout and a strong hand at the finish. 7 min. full stage.
The best act of its kind we have ever played and I have never known a bigger hit in this house. 50 min. full stage.
This man got many laughs, unquestionably because of his personality. He certainly has dug back a long ways to get some of his material which was probably willed to him by the late Charlie Case. His banjo playing is exceptionally good and he made a real hit. 19 min. in one.
Very picturesque act displaying some striking costumes and elaborate draperies. The work of the people in dancing is good, the singing fair. Altogether it is a very good act. 16 min. full stage.
In the same act which he has been giving us some many years now and it seems to me it is time to change a few of his jokes despite the fact that he got laughs with them. I would not care to play him again until his act is materially changed. 15 min. in one.
Young man and woman, in an act of violin playing, ragtime singing and dancing. A fair act which answered in this spot. 14 min. in one.
Well known hand balancing and gymnastic act of which the principal feature is the dog and which scored very well in the opening position. 10 min. full stage.
Two men and a woman. Story Book Stuff. This sketch Went rather weak this afternoon — Mr. Bond acknowledged this himself– walked out on him — but to-night is a different story — received continued laughter throughout the act and at finish a good hand. He was well pleased with his reception to-night. Stage settings are very tasty and looked very nicely from the orchestra. 22 min. full stage.
“The Black Dog” — Singing, talking and dancing. This fellow surely got the audience right — was a hit from the very first — His funny sayings and the way he had of putting it over received many laughs and at the finish a great hand. 14 min. in one.
