Jessie Brown and Effie Weston, third, gave the show the air of a production, with their magnificently costumed sister act. But there’s something more than wardrobe to the act, and everything the girls did landed. Both are good dancers, and they showed a variety of stepping that ran the gamet from a fancy waltz to a modern jazz. Miss Brown’s single, “Come Pay With Me,” a re-write evidently of Anna Held’s famous audience song, and a dancing single by Miss Weston, costumed classily with a scarlet fringed sash and big hat of the same color, pulled down individual scores. Dave Dryer filled in the piano while the girls were changing, singing well written little interludes explaining what was coming next.
