TRENT THEATRE CRITICISM. WEEK OF JANUARY 22, 1912 By J. F. Clancy AFTERNOON SHOW M'LLE MARTHA Trapeze act. Works full stage. A mighty good opening number, goes well. M'lle Martha is a very pretty girl and her work on the trapeze is of a most unusual character. CLARK & BERGMAN Singing and dancing sketch, called "A Baseball Flirtation." Works all in "one." This pair is, without question, the hit of the bill. Beginning with tonight's show they will work #4 MADAME BEESON & COMPANY Dramatic sketch, entitled "The Woman Who Knew." A most unusual story and one that held the attention of the audience throughout. Went big at the finish. VICTORIA FOUR This is positively a bad quartette. The two bass voices are all right, but the tenors - "good-night." A fellow with a falsetto voice has enough excess to carry all through life without endeavoring to turn it into a soprano, as the first tenor did this afternoon. Beginning tonight this act works #2 INTERMISSION KENO & GREEN A comedy singing and dancing sketch, called "Hands Across the Street." While personally I like this act very much, especially the dancing, it went very poorly this afternoon. The reason for this might lie in the fact that it was not quite strong enough to follow an act like Clark & Bergman, a great deal of whose work is made up of dancing. FROSINI This fellow, who works in "one," is a marvel with the accordeon. he went very big this afternoon. I think his act will cause quite some talk. JOE DEKOS TROUPE Human jugglers. Work full stage. This act is away from the usual run of acrobatic offerings and makes an excellent closing number for the show.
