The International Revue, carrying seven men and one woman, made some poor attempts at comedy, bringing few laughs during their 15 minutes. The yodeling song by the Italian impersonator received good applause, the other members of the company lacking good voices. A patriotic closing featuring the Statue of Liberty makes an effective kind applause finish.
Florette, opening the show, received well merited applause for clever routine of acrobatics and contortion. Although her act is rather short, it is interesting throughout, the feature being the manner in which she effects what appears to be a complete dislocation of the neck.
Binns and Bert, billed as “daring trapezists and pantomimists,” opened the vaudeville and fully lived up to their title. The act is clever throughout, their work on the trapeze bringing much applause.
Excellent bill this week; comedy and singing well divided and delivered. Will King scored again with “Your Honor” as the offering. Although ordinary janitors in a courtroom, King and Lew Dunbar as Ikey and Mike, respectively, occupy the bench during the judge’s vacation and bring laugh after laugh with their comedy.
King caused a riot of laughter when he walked into the courtroom with a cash register and placed it on the jurist’s bench. The two “jurists” then proceeded to soak everybody.
Garcinetto Brothers closed with novelty hat throwing, getting laughs by throwing large ball into audience. They were aided by a well trained bulldog and held the audience in.
Eddy and Howard came next and proved the laughing and applause hit of the bill. Eddy, an excellent tumbler, and Howard, a contortionist of the first water, accomplished some interesting feats, but monkeyed too much.
Adams and Burkino, two-man comedy novelty turn, open the bill and have almost a show of their own. They juggle clubs and hats, do some pretty fair hoop-rolling, a comedy ventriloquial bit and some laughs conjuring, with a lot of comedy paraphernalia and pantomime intermixed, getting scattered laughs throughout.
Another big hit was scored by Lea Carle and Dolly Inez, They get laughs from the start with a nifty talk arrangement finishing with steel guitar playing by the woman and the man’s nifty acrobatic.
Rubina and Rosa were another girl team with violin and accordion and went on fourth, finishing to good applause after some interpolated singing and comedy attempts that got little.
Austin and Delaney, providing practically all the show’s comedy, appeared next to closing for a well deserved hit with a routine of talk and songs, comedy bits and exceptionally clever dancing.
