Newsboys’ Quartette

Location:
Date:
These rough quartettes cannot be relied upon for much in this house. The coarse atmosphere which pervades the act is not appreciated by our audiences. Their comedy is decidedly forced, but in this case the singing is better than usual. If I didn’t need the time in one so badly and could place them earlier on the bill, they would be all right but they are hardly suited to the place I am obliged to give them, however it should be rated as a fairly good three a day act.
