TRENT THEATRE, TRENTON, N. J., WEEK OF NOV. 21, 1904.
Act Set
Potter & Hartwell Full stage
Good act, made good; went very good for opening act. Several meritorious tricks; neatly dressed and they work with much action.
Brando & Wiley All in one
Went very good and big at finish. Colored act with plenty of action that made very good for number two on the bill. Comedy and singing ordinary; dancing very good.
Four Boises Full stage
Made good; went fair. well dressed act; boy and girl adds to attractiveness. They do no wonderful feats, or as clever tricks as some other casting feats, but they are sure in all that they do do.
INTERMISSION
Midgely and Carlisle Full stage
Good standard laughing act that went good up to the finish; a little quiet at finish owing to the singing not being strong enough to make a thoroughly good ending for the comedy.
Fred Niblo All in one
Went very big; splendid for the ladies here. A clean cut, original, bright, fast running monologuist with a personality that universally pleases the audience in almost its entirety.
Fadette Orchestra Full stage
A big number that makes good as to drawing power and pleases well. Second time for the act here, and it was truly as worthy from all standpoints as their appearance a year ago.
BIOGRAPH
This criticism is based only upon the management's version of the acceptance of the above acts by the Patrons of the Trent Theatre, Trenton, N. J.
