REPORT OF COLONIAL, LAWRENCE, WEEK OF NOV. 21, 1910.
John F. Adams, Critic.
Mallia and Bart - "Acrobatic Baggage Smashers" doing some great tumbling with a baggage truck which they carry. Opened up show great. 9 min. full stage.
Du Ball Bros.- a very good dancing act, went very well. 10 min. in one.
The Silver Bottle - a girl act, nine people. Six girls, featuring Pauline Perry, late of the "Merry Widow Co." The act is full of good musical numbers and the girls make three changes of costume. Miss Perry makes a big hit in her solos and altogether the act went very big from the start. 20 min. full stage.
Geo. F. Hall - "The Yankee Story Teller" a good line of original material, went very good. 19 min. in one.
Valerie Bergere Co - in "His Japanese Wife" the best sketch we have played. Miss Bergere is wonderfully magnetic and together with her supporting company made a very big hit, drawing applause all through the act. I expect this act will be very much talked about, hit of the show. 32 min. full stage.
Sharkey Geisler and Lewis - three young men doing a singing act, with piano, went very big. 14 min. in one.
Nederveld's Jockey Monkey - a riding monkey and pony. Monkey is very well trained and does some wonderful riding and tricks on the pony bareback, a good novelty, made a great closing act. 13 min. full stage.
Motion Pictures.  O. K.
