"BIG KEVUET IS LAUGHING HIT OF SEASON AT STAR Dtxon'a "Big- Rerlew," featuring Harry (HlckeyV- La van. -proved- to be one of the best laughing- afaowsi seen; at the. Star this season.' and. It Is said, did the largest week's business done at Manager Joyce's house for this time, of the year In a long time. . The "Review." according- to the pro- gramme, was written by Felix Adler, Frank Tannehlll and Henry P. Dixon and the ma- terial Is worthy of the names mentioned. In many instances the situations are-new. Funny little Harry Lav-an. more familiar- ly known the country over as "Hlckey," was never more amusing. Hia eccentric make-up and red wig;, his funny manner- isms, boyish pranks and odd style of comedy, together -with his quiet way of working, makes him the leading comedian of his type in burlesque. He surely knows how to handle a burlesque audience and h e wo rks clean. - . -. William Gross Is doing second comedy In a misfit dress suit; that Is, he Is doing light comedy and practically working "straight" to Lavao, feeding him throughout the show. He works fast and seems clever, in all he does. yr Bob Nelson, the Juvenile straight, makes a good appearance, has a neat. wardrobe, can dance and reads lines nicely. ' Claire DeTine. a sweet looking prima donna, sang- under difficulties last Thurs- day night, due to a cold. She Is an at- tractive blonde and displayed some really -beautiful gowns. She was rather languid In her work the evening we caught the show, which la unusual for her. Nellie Greenwood Is one of the best little soubrettes we nave seen at this 'house all season. She is full of "pep" and - never failed to get several encores with all her numbers. She Is a corking good dancer, reads lines well, has a lot of personality and a -very pretty form. Miss Greenwood is of the brunette type. She offers many pretty dresses. Lettle Bollea is one of the prettiest and shapeliest young ladles in burlesque, to our way of thinking, and. has a most > pleasing personality.. She la one of those .likable little girls. Miss Bolles Is another soubrette with the show, but of a different- type than Miss Greenwood. She did very well with all her numbers Thursday evening, as well as with her neenes and she surely offered an attractive wardrobe. Helen Stuart, -whom wc ' have always claimed to be the best character woman In burlesque, still remains bo In our opinion. The season Is nearly over and still we are waiting to see her equal. Besides doing her character work excellently, she has a wonderful singing voice. The parasol number of Miss Devine's was well staged. A good line of comedy was offered by La van and Nelson early In the show -and went over big. The material was good and the lines witty. The boys knew how to put it over. The "safe" bit pleased, as done by La- van, Gross and Nelson. The "tlck-tock" bit was amusing as offered by Lavan, Gross, Nelson and the Misses Devlns, Greenwood, Bolles and Stuart. The "table" bit was well offered by La- van, Nelson and Miss Greenwood. The "Fortune" bit was put over by Lavan and Miss Greenwood, who finished with a neat slnaina and dancing bit- A corking good singing and piano spe- cialty and the big hit of the show was of- fered by Lavan and Miss Devlne. Lavan worked at the piano. They offered several numbers that scored a big* success. Miss De Vine's "Teddy" number seemed to please most, while Lavan put over a- pro- hibition number that more than pleased. The act lasted about fifteen minutes and there was enough entertainment crowded Into It in that short time to satisfy any one. The "Whiskers" bit was good for laughs, aa It was offered by Lavan. Gross. Nelson end Miss Stuart. Miss Stuart had an opportunity to show her voice In a burlesque operatic bit she did with Lavan and the scene was well accepted. - ■ The motion picture scene In the second part offered many good comedy situations In which Lavan kept the audience in good humor. He was assisted greatly by Gross, who was seen at bis best in this part of the show. He "fed"' Lavan for many laughs. Kelson and the Mlases Devlne. Greenwood. Bolles and Stuart also did well In this scene. Miss Greenwood offered a very graceful toe dance in a number in which she was surrounded by the chorus. Bier steps -were cleverly executed and her offering gen- erously applauded. The "corset" bit created many laughs, as done by Lavan and Miss De Vine. A good duet was offered by Nelson and Miss De Vine. It pleased- The "movable bar" bit. offered by Lavan and Miss Stuart, had many funny situa- tions. Miss Stuart worked up a good "drunk," never overdoing It. The chorus has a* number of pretty girls, all of whom worked hard, - Their costumes were pretty and do not show any bad effects of a long season's work. The num- bers were well staged. - The "Big Review" Is a good show, with bright lines, funny situations and a fine cast of principals. It la a better show than some we have seen.on the Columbia Circu it this season. ■■■• . - SID.
