The New York Clipper (May 1914)

May 30 THE NEW YORK CLIPPER. 17 NEW VAUDEVILLE ACTS AND REAPPEARANCES Maicronl, Delmar and Company, in "Debt." Pboctor's 125tk St., Mat 10. To Stuart Beebc goes the credit cf this well written dramatic sketch that tells an intereitlng story of what a wife "would do" to secure S1O.O0O and recover a beautiful necklace she had "put la" to satisfy her greed for cash. Her husband, a great pianist. Is supposed to be "away from home?' She Is escorted to her ihome by x young millionaire, who makes love to he' and tempts her with his gold. She tells of her Indebtedness and ■Dett" In the form of a fiendish looking black garbed fel'.ow. with the wlfe'a necklace bpnglng about flls neck, 1b brought from be- hind a curtain. The millionaire ploys his cards atcng In his attempt to make her satisfy tla desires, and prodded along by "Debt," the wife gradually melta before the wealthy chap's love making ability, when the t-naband rushes in loams all quickly, and in order to keep his wife, "severs" two of bla talented fingers (off stage) to secure enccgh accident insurance to clear the debt against his wife. It la a dramatic offering, away from the usual, and has a power to hold an audience's Interest from beginning to end, as It did her e In "clot-lug" position. The part of "Debt" la lectured by the fine portrayal by Mario Majtronl, while Madeline Delmar does com- paratively as well as the wife. Hark Sinltb, as the millionaire, and George Marjeronl, aa the husband, were equal to the opportunities offered toward making "Debt" a very en- tertaining (access here. Fifteen minutes, In- terior. Tod. ■ i ii La Hake, Parker and Company, In "The Minister's Wife." Pboctoe's 12Sth Street, Mat 10. A farce that pictures the characters of a young minister, married to a very much mu- tated "wild" young woman, who' prefers romping in the air, tennis and all athletics to "picking music for next Sunday" and studying religion. There la a third character, that of a dea- con, who comes in as toe comedy "shocked one at the young minister's wife s doings. The Idea Is "thin," it's all too talky, and there Isn't action for the Jessie Parker to illustrate the part of the wild spouse as In- tended. Fred A. Le Duke looked the part of the Rev. Tempietoo, and James Flnlayson aroused a few laughs as Deacon BlubwelL Sixteen minutes. Interior, Tod. i Kelly and Galvin. Fci/ton-, Beooklvn, Mat 20. .Two men, one working as a "wop," the other, straight. The act opens up with the Italian singing alone a good comedy "wop" song. At the finish the straight enters and they engage in some bright patter, followed by both singing "He's a Devil In His Own Home Town," and they put it over, in fact, better tbsn any act that has appeared here so far. The Italian' then gave a very fnnny travesty of a Spanish dance. Tbelr next number, "They Bad to Swim Back to tbo Shore," went over well. Closing with "Fool- ing Around" gave them a big band. A good act. Nineteen minutes, in one. Bid. ■ii i s Cyril and Scott. Pboctob's 125th Struct, Max 19. Cyril may be English, Scott may be Eng- lish, and Cyril Scott may be English. At any rate these two men, one made-up as a monocled .silk hat ''English Johnnie," and tbe other -working straight, offer a cross-fire line of patter that centres on the usual stupedness of the "Johnnie" to "get" slang sayings and gags pulled by the other. The "chappie also sings an English ver- sion on "Get Out and Get Under," the straight has a sentimental verse, and both finish up with *»He's a Devil in His Home Town." Entertaining '^pop" turn. rod. ■ i s •Marie Laurent. Bedford, Bbookxtn, Mat 19. Hiss Laurent opens Tier act singing an operatic selection, which she rendered fairly well, wearing a yellow satin gown, wltb pearl trimmings. Her two following numbers were also of -the classical type, which is a mis- take, as both offerings were too similar. Miss •Laurent's enunciation Is rather poor, sho also Is stiff in her acting, and seemed more salted to concert work than vaudeville. Ten minutes, In one. Bid.
