COOK OPERA HOUSE, ROCHESTER, N.Y., WEEK OF NOV. 3D, 1902.
ACT TIME SET
FANNY RICE 12 min. full stage
Presenting her cabinet marionettes, after opening jockey recitation. Both go very well. Not a particularly strong card here, but a very pleasant act.
HODGE & HASSELL 20 full stage
Local cycle act.
LWEIS McCORD & CO 28 full stage
Presenting "Her Las Rehearsal." The act was n bad shape Monday, owing to the fact that the man playing Romeo was very uncertain, it being his first performance. However, the act is working up and going nicely. McCord does not follow the Frederick Bond idea in the act, but treats the comedy fore farcically, depending entirely on the laughs for his hit.
PRESS ELDRIDGE 18 all in one
Going about as well as usual, using mostly new material that is better than some he has given us, but possible not the best.
RENO, RICHARDS & CO 18 full stage
This act was a surprise, as it is now in very much better shape, both as to comedy and acrobatics, than ever before. It is really as good an act as we play. Considering prices paid other acts, it is well worth the money.
FALKE & SEAMON 18 full stage-close in one
While it is a pleasing comedy musical act it is by no means worth the price.
MARGARET WEBB 10 all in one
Nice, pleasing soprano singer, whose girlish appearance adds greatly to the act.
EVANS & ST. JOHN 15 all in one
Splendid small singing and dancing act. Goes well with the audience and both look well. At the price it is worth the attention of the managers.
W. B. McCallum.
