BIJOU THEATRE, WOONSOCKET, R. I.
REPORT OF SHOW THURSDAY FEBRUARY 18, 1915.
BARRINGTON: Ventriloquist, 14 minutes (1) Fair act, displaying nothing of an extraordinary nature; In fact the act is not up to the usual standard of like offerings seen here in the past.
REIDY & CURRIER: Vocal and harp, 12 minutes (1) Lady and Man. Good act; Sing extremely well displaying good voices. Lady's selections on the harp are well-done, and the entire act met with the approval of a thoroughly appreciative audience.
FRESCOTT assisted by SELMAN FRASER: Mentelepathy, 14 to 25 minutes (3) Very good act, having much to recommend it from a scientific viewpoint. It gives ground for much thought and great speculation as to the way in which they accomplish the seemingly miraculous. All audiences were very attentive and highly interested and already they have created quite a little sensation here in town. It is indeed a good novelty entertainment.
