BIJOU THEATRE, WOONSOCKET, R. I.
REPORT OF SHOW MONDAY, DECEMBER, 20, 1915.
EDDIE BADGER: COMEDY MUSICAL, 12 MINUTES. (1)
As a musical offering very ordinary: Gets a few scattered laughs with the comedy obtained from some novel apparatus which is indeed, the most interesting part of the act.
ADAIR & WYANT: SINGING AND DANCING SKIT, 14 MINUTES (1)
Good program of songs, rendered in voices of pleasing quality. Lady displays a wealth of beautiful costume creations, a revelation to our feminine clientelle.
BEE HO GRAY & CO: PASTIMES OF THE WEST, 13 MINUTES, FULL STAGE
Good novelty act, the lariat skill displayed created much favorable comment and the act in its entirety was very well received at all performances. Unquestionably the best of its kind yet offered here.
