DETROIT, MICHIGAN, TEMPLE THEATRE.
Week of November 30th, 1903.
PANTZER TRIO: Two young shapely women, in a contortion act of merit, with little real comedy. Makes good opening act. 13 mins. in one.
THREE KEATONS: Eccentric comedy act, considerable of the comedy furnished by Master Keaton, whose imitations of Dan Daly and the Russell Bros. are of more than ordinary interest. 17 mins. F. S. 9 mins. in one.
LaBELLE DAZIE: A toe dancing act of extraordinary merit, but it doesn't seem to take with the audience. The young woman is pretty dashing and presents a pretty stage picture. 6 mins. F. S.
HOWLEY & LESLIE: An ordinary singing and dancing act, that meets with the favor of the audience. The young woman of the team in her child imitation is excellent. Both good dancers and fair singers. 17 mins 1.
GREAT AVOLOS: European act, novel and of more than ordinary merit. Two men, one dressed as a woman, perform on upright poles. Six in number, and furnish considerable strength to any bill. 7 mins. F.S.
H. J. JOSE: Contra-tenor ballad singer of wide range, power and sweetness. Best contra-tenor ballad singer in the business. He is always received here with marked favor. 12 mins. in one.
ROBERT HILLIARD & CO.:
In "No. 973". This playlet adopted from "Editha's Burglar", gives Mr. Hilliard and company abundant opportunity for the display of their unquestioned ability. It is, perhaps, the strongest sketch in vaudeville. 35 mins F. S.
NORA BAYES: Singing comedienne of dash and style, who grows constantly in favor, dresses well and gets the applause. 11 mins. in one.
LaVINE CAMERON TRIO: An acrobatic act of considerable merit. Two men and a woman. 10 mins. F.S.
