B. F. KEITH'S THEATRE. BOSTON SHOW - WEEK JUNE 24, 1912. (R. G. Larsen.) (Monday afternoon.) CLARA BALLERINI. 8 minutes full stage. Palace. Doing pretty much the same act as of old, and making a good opener for the hot weather bill. MORRIS and KRAMER. 8 minutes in one. Garden. Blackface singing and dancing. A fair act that got a way with it to-day. MAUD HALL MACY and CO in "The Magpie and The Jay." 18 minutes f.s. Rough kitchen. Another instance where the old time country sketch wears itself out. It got by all right with the warm weather audience, but that was all. HARRIET BURT. 13 minutes in one. Olio drop. A very good single, doing four numbers, and changes. Finished strong. HAVILAND and THORNTON. 19 minutes f.s. Special set. Can Close in one if necessary. Doing pretty much the same act as when here last, and going as well as ever. In fact, this is an act that can always be depended upon. WENTWORTH, VESTA and TEDDY. 10 minutes in one. Garden. Went as big, if not bigger, away down on the bill, as it ever did in the forepart. I would not be afraid to play it there in the middle of the season. MASTER GABRIEL and COMPANY in "Little Kick." 22 minutes f.s. C.D.F. Gabe has a corking good act in this, and had the audience laughing about every minute he was on the stage. Three people, but Gabe is the whole act. HENRY and FRANCIS. 17 minutes in one. Olio. Here is another act that should be routed up at once according to my idea. They went down in a hard place to-day and while it is a bit rough, can be toned down and fill in on most any bill. MARLO-ALDO TRIO. 7 minutes f.s. Cut Garden. Comedy bar act with very little comedy. Made a good closer for a summer show. COMMENT. One of the warmest days we have had, but the show went exceptionally well. CUTS. Harriet Burt - verse about "widow" in song. J. Butler Haviland - gag about "five dollars for the hooray." Carl Henry - business of slapping wife on back.
