SUMMER SHOW
B. F. KEITH'S THEATRE CINCINATTI, OHIO
Week of July 20th, 1913. J. F. Royal, Mgr.

COMEDY PHOTO PLAY:

MUSICAL STIPPS:
12 min. in two. Man and woman in novelty xylophone act. A satisfying act for one of its kind. They work hard, and give a bright opening to the show.

CARRIE LILIE:
14 min. in one. Singing comedienne. Suffering from an attack of ptomaine poisoning, which necessitated the calling of a doctor, the young lady courageously went through four performances, and with her four songs scored a big hit. She deserves a lot of credit. Sings her numbers well, and got a fine closing.

LOCAL PICTURES:
7 min.

EUGENE TRIO:
8 min. F. S. Three men in a comedy bar act. Placed in this spot to break up an abundance of singing. Worked fast, and got big laughs, and closed strong.

LAWRENCE TRIO:
Two men and a woman. 9 min. in one. Singing and dancing act. Bright and lively girl, making changes, and working in audience with plant. Went fair.

"AN ALASKAE HONEYMOON:"
22 min. Open F. S., go to one, and close F. S. Special scenery. Two men and a woman, assisted by four pretty chorus girls, in a miniature musical comedy. It is big looking, but nothing to it. The singing and dancing is fair, and the change of costumes gives it the bigness. The Jewish comedian gets a few laughs. Proved passable.

CAPITOL CITY FOUR:
16 min. Four neat, clever boys, in a great singing act. They work fast and well, have a good program, and are easily the hit of the show. They were the one bright spot on the bill.

COMEDY PHOTO PLAY:
Split reel.
