Russell & Smith’s Minstrels

Location:
Theater:
Date:
Type:
3 men. Open in 3 special back drop. Close in 1. Time 25. A good minstrel touch with exceptionally fine singing. However the time is too long. Motion pictures are needlessly introduced and add nothing to the act. In this particular case with pictures occurring in the preceding act, the coincidence makes unfortunate booking.
