Impersonator, introducing “The Belle of the Broadway Show”, “The Pantaloon Girl” and the Dancing Maid”, each of which numbers pleased to a moderate extent. The act finishes with a dancing creation entitled “The Serpent of the Nile.” This is the Cleopatra story and wonderfully well presented. The scenic equipment is elaborate, the costuming very pretty and the lighting effects appropriate. The dance itself acquired and held the closest attention the audience throughout, the finale of the dance being particularly strong and making all in all a very successful number. The act must be accounted a wined and it is one that should create a deal of talk. 21 minutes; opens special set in 2, closes special in 4.
