Burns & Freda

Italian Comedians with the same material that has been offered on other occasions but somehow seemed to go better than ever. It was a toss up whether they or Gallagher and Shean were the bigger hit, but there was no doubt that Burns and Freda were the stronger when it came to the travesty on Gallagher and Shean anything of the kind ever in theatre. All together 25 minutes in one.

Sandy Shaw

A very good Scotch Comedian. Went big. 12 min in 1.

The Avon Comedy Four

GRR 3 – These people proved to be a genuine surprise to me at least. The act consists of four men—one of them made up as a Dutchman, another as a Hebrew, another as a “tough”, and another as an over-grown “kid”. I booked the act for three shows a day as an experiment, stipulating that is they went well we would send them over the circuit. There was so much heavy material that I was obliged to give them one of the strong places in the bill, and they practically made the hit of the show. It is an act that will go anywhere. 25 minutes, open in two and close with about 6 minutes in one.
