CRITICISM
B. F. KEITH'S UNION SQUARE THEATRE,
WEEK of DECEMBER 23rd, 1912.
LUCE AND LUCE
Man and a woman of good personality in a neat musical act that opened the show in splendid manner. Eleven minutes in one.
TEXAS TOMMY DANCERS
Six of the original Texas Tommy Dancers. Far superior to the delegation that carried that name here some time ago. A good dancing number. Thirteen minutes, full stage.
FRANK MULLANE
A clean cut young fellow with an excellent voice and a fairly good supply of stories that he gets over. Fourteen minutes in one.
JACK KENNEDY AND COMPANY
Two men and woman in a comedy called "A Business Proposal". A fast comedy, admirably played. Nineteen minutes, full stage.
CHARLOTTE RAVENSCROFT
This young lady was slightly handicapped on account of 



to hold the attention and received a good hand on the finish. Fifteen minutes, full stage.
BIG CITY FOUR
An excellent quartette that negotiated this place in good manner. Held the stage for twenty-one minutes and left them wanting more.
ROSE PITONOF
This young lady will have to go some to equal "Odiva" or even come near to tieing "Ideal". I think it is the poorest presentation I have ever had; in fact, it is the weakest diving act I ever saw, due probably to bad management. Nine minutes, full stage.
