The Edgertons, 3 shows, 8 min. full stage -- Man and woman, in a trapeze act, no different from half a dozen others that we play here, but always acceptable. They introduce a bit of novelty by electric lighting their apparatus, but this adds little to the value of the act. Comment - I advertised this show big, "the best in two years", and that is just what it turns out to be. There is not an act on the bill that I would want to do without, and every turn scored a hit of some kind. The house was packed from floor to roof by an unusually appreciative Monday audience, and the big business of past weeks should not only be duplicated, but should be excelled.
