REPORT on BOSTON SHOW for WEEK of APRIL 5 - 1915
(R. G. Larsen)
QUEENIE DUNEDIN  13 minutes f.s. Short opening in one. Landscape. Opens with a song and talks on the wire. Finishes with bicycle riding. A good, showy opening act. Went first rate.
JUAN CARDO and FRITZI NOLL  11 minutes in one and two. Olio and palace Drops. A singing act that went over in great shape at both performances.
ARNAUT BROTHERS  14 minutes f.s. Palace Set. This act is one of the biggest hits of the kind we have had in the house for a long time.
JOSIE HEATHER and HENRY MARSHALL   21 minutes in one. O.P. Drapery. songs and changes with grand piano in one. Went over first rate in this spot. A good act.
HAYWARD STAFFORD COMPANY "The Devil Outwitted" 17 minutes f.s. C.D.F. One of those acts that do not make much of an impression in this house. In fact, in the afternoon there was more or less snickering over it. But it got over.
PRIMROSE FOUR  17 minutes in one. Street. A big reception and a big hit.
GERTRUDE HOFFMANN and HER NEW REVUE  65 minutes f.s. Special Sets. Gave a good performance this afternoon and went very big at night. She is certainly doing business.
CUTS: Hayward Stafford Co - word 'Hell."
