The act was five minutes long on the full stage.
The troupe is made up of seven men and one woman who do do back somersaults off of a horse-drawn sleigh. The men wear long black beards to make them look like Russians and the setting is supposed to be Russian as well.
"In trying the back turn to the shoulders of an understander three or four misses were made." The act showed no class, but was perhaps not on long enough to show what they could do. For now they are strictly a filler.
