The act was six minutes long on the full stage.
Dippy Diers does some acrobatics on the ground and then proceeds to do a “break neck table” trick in the style of Bert Melrose. He stands on top of four wobbling stacked tables with a chair, but refuses to sit on it. He sways back and forth and then falls over with the tables.
The act is good for a thrill, but it is not new to the New York stage. It does, however, help to round out the variety portion of a show.
