Report on PROVIDENCE SHOW, Week of February 20, 1911.
Chas. Lovenberg, Manager.
This is a cracker-jack show which played mighty well and suited the audience thoroughly. If we get over the blizzard, we probably will have some business.
PAUL LeCROIX
Comedy juggler, too well-known to rquire comment. 10 Min. in One.
THE COLIBRIS
Midget acrobats. The act has been described in other reports. It will suffice to say that they made a genuine hit. 10 Min. F. S.
MURRAY & LANE
Singing comedy sketch. A little bit old fashioned but pleased fairly well in this part of the bill. 19 Min. Open in Two, close in One.
MARIE & BILLY HART
What might be termed a variety sketch, introducing a little of almost everything. The act is quite a novelty in its way and scored a hit. 19 Min. Open F.S., Close in One.
THE UESSEMS
Acrobatic act and hand-balancing. Went as big as they evidently did in other cities, judging from reports. 15 Min. F. S.
LAWRENCE JOHNSTON
Ventriloquist. The first part of his act went fairly well, but he made his hit with his long distant sounds, closing to strong applause. 17 Min. in One.
"THE COURTIERS"
Spectacular musical and singing act. A tremendous big hit. 27 Min. F. S.
WORLD & KINGSTON
Held the particularly difficult spot to good advantage, closing to strong applause. 30 Min. Open and Close in One.
HOWARD'S PONIES
Probably the best act of its kind in the business, which made a splendid closing act to a very strong bill. 18 Min. F. S.
