HYDE & BEHMAN's
Week Commencing December 1st, 1902
BRUNO & RUSSELL Singers and Dancers. They deserve a much better place on the bill, as both are clever and with the exception of a few rough spots in the comedy, have a neat sketch which goes very well. The woman has a pleasing stage appearance and a good voice. Full stage; time 20 minutes.
LEONA THURBER & PICKS. A fair act only. The "Picks" are almost fullgrown men, but are both good singers though some of their selections fall short. The melody of the three voices together is pleasing. Work in one. 9 Min.
FAVOR & SINCLAIR in sketch "Caesar's Angel". If this act was cut in half and the first part discarded it would be much improved. Are both clever artists and Favor's song seems to take. Miss Sinclair presents a very fine appearance and handsome costumes. Full stage; time 29 minutes.
MARTIN BROTHERS. Xylophone Players. Very good musicians in their line; are hard workers and their selections made good. work in one. Time 14 minutes.
MME. EUGENIA MANTELLI Star Mezzo-Soprano. has a voice of wonderful sweetness of expression, and her selections made a decided hit. Used grand piano accompaniment only with full stage. For concert work however, her rendition is extremely operatic, but as a whole, her engagement was a great success. Time 15 minutes.
MR. & MRS. JIMMIE BARRY In sketch "A Skin Game" A clever act and goes very well. Full stage; closing in one. Time 23 minutes.
KEOUGH & BALLARD In a Vaudeville Surprise. This is a good act and makes a hit. full stage; time 27 minutes.
JOE FLYNN Songs and Monologue. Flynn has a very amusing personality, and always makes a hit at this house. His talk runs smoothly, and he is very quick to take advantage of any points presented. Works in one. Time 13 minutes.
LOWELL & LOWELL Acrobats. Fair closing act only. Full stage. Time 7 minutes.
Henry W. Behman.
