B. F. KEITH'S THEATRE - BOSTON - WEEK SEPT. 29, 1913.
(R. G. Larsen.)
JUGGLING BURKES. 8 minutes in two. Garden. Wellknown clubb juggling turn that made a splendid opener.
BLACK BROTHERS. 14 minutes in one. Olio. Two nice-appearing boys who work in evening dress, doing banjo and piano playing and dancing. A rattling good act that could go further down with credit.
CHARLES A MACK & CO. in "Come Back To Erin." 21 minutes f.s. Special set. The same act he has given us on previous visits. Going about the same as ever.
JULIA KELETY. 13 minutes in one. O.P. Drapery. Miss Kelety is a Frenchwoman of striking personal appearance. While she has a beautiful voice, her selection of songs could be improved upon.
R. L. GOLDBERG. 19 minutes. Open in one. Olio. Close in two. Special sheet. Goldberg's "I'm The Guy" drawings are published in the Boston Traveller-Herald, and that he has a following in this city was very evident at both performances to-day. He got a reception, kept the audience laughing every minute, and closed strong.
"CHUCK" REISNER and HENRIETTA GORES. "It's Only A Show." 17 minutes in one. Special drop. The hit of the show. Reisner's comedy went over big, and the dancing finish actually stopped the show.
A. SEYMOUR BROWN & CO. in "The Bachelor Dinner." 32 minutes f.s. Special set. Six principals, six chorus men and six chorus girls make up the company. Brown has tried to give us something worth while in the musical comedy line, and judging by the way the act went over to-day, he has succeeded. The comedy got a lot of laughs, while the music is exceptional for an act of this character. Several numbers were encored, and the act closed strong.
WARD BROTHERS. 19 minutes in one. Street. These two English Johns soon caught the crowd with their odd chatter. Closed very big.
ROBERT and LOUISE COTTERELL. 7 minutes f.s. Circus cyclorama. Two women and a man in a double equestrian act. Made an acceptable closer.
CUTS: A Seymour Brown & Co - "I've got friends" gag - "Oh, My Romeo" gag - business of father kissing adventuress.
