REPORT on BOSTON SHOW for WEEK of JANUARY 4th - 1915
(R. G. Larsen.)
PATHE WEEKLY  9 minutes in one. Picture Sheet. Fairly interesting series of pictures.
MAHONY and AUBURN  9 minutes in one. Garden Drop. A rattling good two-man club juggling act. Fast and full of comedy. Could go down on the bill.
FOUR MELODIOUS CHAPS  15 minutes in two. Palace. A quartette with two pianos and a violin. Very fast act. Full of life and ginger and could go further down.
ALICE TEDDY, THE ROLLER SKATING BEAR  15 minutes f.s. Special Drop. This bear waltzes, wrestles, and does various other stunts. Has plenty of comedy. Scored a decided hit.
CUMMINGS and GLADDINGS  12 minutes in two. Special Drop. These people have improved their act fully 100% since they were here last season. Scored heavily.
JOSEPH HART'S "A TELEPHONE TANGLE" with DOROTHY REGEL  19 minutes in one. Special Set in three. Short Opening Olio Drop in one. Has some new characters, and proved a big laughing hit.
ALBERTA MOORE AND MYRTLE YOUNG  11 minutes in one. Olio Drop. Good lively sister act, with a touch of novelty. Held the spot and finished strong.
BESSIE CLAYTON and LESTER SHEEHAN, assisted by CLAYTON SEXTETTE  23 minutes f.s. Special curtain and draperies. The greatest of them all. The best dancing act we have ever played. Scored a tremendous hit.
FRANK CONROY and GEORGE LeMAIRE  22 minutes. Open street in one. Close special set in two. "The New Physician." Kept the audience laughing.
ROBERT DeMONT TRIO  8 minutes f.s. "At Hotel Turnover." Wellknown fast acrobatic act that made an acceptable closer.
CUTS: Conroy and LeMaire - reference to "twilight sleep."
