B. F. KEITH'S THEATRE - BOSTON - WEEK FEBRUARY 10 - 1913.
(R. G. Larsen.)
LEROY, WILSON and TOM. 9 minutes f.s. Garden. A three man knockabout "bump" act. One of the best we have played in a long time. Full of laughs and fast enough to close any show.
MAX HART'S SIX STEPPERS. 12 minutes in one. Garden. A good dancing act that livened up the show in great shape.
CLOWN ZERTHOS' DOGS OF ALL NATIONS. 22 minutes f.s. Special set. Man and woman with about thirty dogs. Elaborate stage setting and a great animal act. Kept the audience laughing all through.
NEVINS and ERWOOD. 14 minutes in one. Street. Man and woman, blackface. A good comedy act with some lively eccentric dancing at the finish.
JACK CONLY and MARGARET WEBB. 20 minutes f.s. with 7 minutes close in one. Conly is a favorite here, but that does not account for the lively manner in which his act went over. The close in one rather improves it.
PROFESSOR OTA GYGI. 17 minutes in one. Olio. Violinist. This man has both personality and musical ability. He held the audience from the start, with good solid applause after every number.
KATHRYN KIDDER and CO. in "The Washerwoman Duchess." 20 minutes f.s. Dark library. A splendid act, very well put on, that finished big.
THREE WONDERFUL SINGERS. 15 minutes in one. Olio drop. These men made a splendid impression here to-day. They certainly have great voices, good songs, and created as much of a sensation as any next-to-closing act we have had in a long time.
DELMORE and LEE. 12 minutes f.s. Black cyclorama. This wellknown act made a splendid closer.
COMMENT: It might be well to remark for the benefit of those who have the Three Wonderful Singers booked, that at least one of them was around this morning looking for cabaret work to fill in his spare time while playing two-a-day at Keith's.
CUTS: Nevins and Erwood - night school gag.
