Baltimore Show = Maryland Theatre = Week of March 28th 1910

===

Galatti's Baboons = 15 minutes full stage. Makes a very good opening act. Some comedy which amuses and animals clever.

Minonette Kokin = 12 minutes in 1 = Opened her act a little slow, but finished good and strong. Singer and dancer.

Hal Stephens = Protean Monologue, 20 Minutes full stage. He carries a big production consisting of five scenes, three of which are very beautiful and effective. Rip Van Winkle, Shylock and Mephistopheles splendidly done and received big applause. Dockstaden and Weber and Fields only fair.

Tom Waters = Comedy, piano playing etc. 18 minutes in 1 A Great comedian who scored a big hit.

Warren, Lyon & Myers = Comedy Skit. 20 minutes, full stage, finish 3 minutes in 1. Splendid value. Miss Myers scored big individual hit.

Intermission =

Valerie Bergere = Dramatic playlet "The Lion Tamer", 25 minutes full stage, special set. This act is big and pretentious and is now working very smoothly and fast. It held the interest of our audience thoroughly throughout and closed to seven curtain calls.

Annabelle Whitford = Singing Novelty. One of the classiest and best single woman acts we have ever played. Miss Whitford is as pretty as picture, has a good voice, good songs and magnificent dresses. With the aeroplane [airplane] feature she has a very valuable offering.

[Podeson?] Brothers. = Trapeze act. 7 minutes full stage. This set scored its customary big hit.

Kinetograph = The millionaire cowboy. Good comedy picture.
