B. F. KEITH'S THEATRE.
BOSTON SHOW - WEEK JUNE 10 - 1912.    (R. G. Larsen.)
(Monday night show.)
MLLE. LORETTE and POSING DOG. 8 minutes f.s. Special set. A very good posing act, dog and woman all in brown. Pretty pictures. Got hand right through.
DAN HALEY. 8 minutes in one. Olio. Haley was one of the end-men with the National Minstrels last season, and was put in in an emergency this afternoon to fill the place of Crouch and Welch, Welch having been injured in New York. He sang two songs and did his "champeen" tambourine stunt. Made nothing short of a hit in this spot, so will keep him in for the week.
TEXAS TOMMY DANCERS. (Caswell and Ronald - Cole and Denehy.) 7 minutes f.s. Palace. Also put in to-night's show to give time after playing last week at the National. Unquestionably the biggest novelty in the dancing line we have had in a long time, and went great to-night.
CHARLES and FANNY VAN. 17 minutes in one. Olio. Doing their old "Stage Carpenter" stunt with a new finish that makes it almost like a new act. Very big.
BENIVICI BROTHERS. 17 minutes in one. Special drop. These two boys play the violin and dress the act nicely. Were a positive hit at both shows. Should be booked up.
MIRANO BROTHERS. 7 minutes f.s. Wood. this is the perch act that played the Hippodrome, and was a very big sensation here to-day. They do a stunt with a sixty-two foot pole on Boston Common to-morrow, weather permitting.
SAM MANN and CO. in "THE NEW LEADER." 29 minutes bare stage. The same big laughing hit he has been everywhere.
BELLE STORY. 14 minutes in one. O.P. Drapery. A splendid hit at the night show.
PROSIT TRIO. 12 minutes f.s. Special circus cyclorama. This is a knockabout pantomime with a special set that has been playing small time. For a cheap act it makes a great closer. Seems to me at the price, it would be well to put it on a route for it could close most any show.
NO CUTS.
