HYDE & BEHMAN'S.
Brooklyn, New York City.
Week commencing December 14th, 1903.
THE LAMONTS. Society Acrobats.
Two men and one woman, who do very nice work, they are clever acrobats, and dress well. Makes a good opening act. All in one. Time 9 minutes.
MATTIE KEENE & CO. "Her First Divorce Case".
A very bright sketch, admirably acted, goes with snap and vigor. Miss Keene is cleverly vivacious throughout and commands much applause. Full stage. Time 16 minutes.
LAURA HILLARD. Operatic selections.
This is Miss Millard's first appearance in Vaudeville and she made a decided hit. She is a Brooklyn woman and is well known as a Prima Donna of the Castle Square Opera, and other companies. She is a handsome and magnetic woman, dresses beautifully and has a sweet and well cultivated voice. Her rendering of the "Last Rose of Summer", is the best that we have ever heard. All of her selections are fine. All in one. Time 14 minutes.
HOLDEN'S MANNIKINS.
A theatre in miniature, introducing life like characters. It is a very strong act here. The transformation scene at the finish is very effective. It is probably, the best act of the kind ever given. Full stage. Time 17 minutes.
JOHN F. LEONARD. Irish songs and sayings.
A good act, and went well. All in one. Time 17 minutes.
EDMOND HAYES & CO. "The Wise Guy".
This act is always a hit here. It is full of laughter, and keeps the audience in good humor. Full stage. Time 30 minutes.
DILLON BROTHERS. Songs made and repaired.
Have a lot of new stuff, and the act goes well. All in one. Time 14 minutes.
QUAKER CITY QUARTETTE. Fun in a Barber shop.
Always a good act for this house. Their singing and comedy very good. We consider it a good act. Full stage, close in one. Time 19 minutes.
HACKER & LESTER. Comedy cyclists.
One of the very best comedy Bicycle acts that we ever had. A closing act, but held the audience. Full stage. Time 10 minutes.
