Herman Leib and Co. succeeded the Wilkens duo with Lieb’s revival of “Dope,” and he was solely responsible for putting it over. The “flake stuff” caught the interest of the house right from the curtain and held it throughout the 23 minutes. Mr. Leib gave a corking performance, but the same cannot be said of his support, the male half of the reform “spotters” being decidedly weak. However, the act is “there” and with Mr. Leib is certain to register more so now perhaps when the drug matter is rampant than when he sensationally first produced it 10 years.
