Keith's Theatre, Boston.
Week of Nov. 15, 1920
Kinograms: Good
Topics of the Day: Fair
Ramsdells & Deyo: 12 min Full Stage Spec.
Boy and two girls in a routine of dances. Did not go as well as on previous visits.
McCloud & Norman: 11 min in 1
These boys play the banjo and violin exceptionally well. Went over very good.
Stephens & Hollister: 20 min. Full Stage and 1 Spec.
This well known team have a new sketch which seemed to please. Closed to a fair hand.
"Fall of Eve" 21 min Full Stage Spec.
This is a novel sketch very well handled. Closed to good hand.
The Russian Cathedral Singers: 13 min in 1 and Full Stage Spec.
These men have very musical voices and did very well in this spot.
The Sharrocks: 22 min in 1 Spec.
Although seen here a number of times this act was a laughing hit.
Marguerita Sylva: 14 min Full Stage
Miss Sylva's program could be much improved on. She held interest, however, and closed to a fair hand.
Mary Haynes: 19 min in 1
This girl was one of the biggest next to closing hits we've had in a long time.
Madame Jewell's Manikins: 11 min Full Stage Spec.
Did very well closing the show.
CUTS: Stephens & Hollister; Please eliminate "Red plush seat" gag. "Don't know you from Adam" gag is shown in the Topics of the Day at the opening of the show I thought you would like to know this.
***************
Mary Haynes; Please eliminate reference to Traveler Shoe.
