Clark and Duncan put pretty much
everything that has been done in vaudeville
into a singing and talking sketch, including
parodies (all new ones), a semidramatic
recitation in Italian dialect (but
with a saving comic "snapper" at the
finish), comic songs and a travesty on
melodrama. The give-and-take of dialog
between husband and wife, the latter a
very stout woman, made effective entertainment
for the Yorkville audience, which
is not as keenly discriminating as that of
the Colonial, but plainly of the respectable
and moderately prosperous class.
