Mildred Parsons

Location:
Theater:
Date:
She tells some pretty old stories, fitting them to her stage experience. One is of a druggist who told her she did not need nerve medication after discovering she was singing at the local theatre. The druggist was wise, making the story no joke.
Miss Parsons’ first song, something about “I Like to Stick Around,” did not agree with the audience, half of them walking out.
