Wednesday, February 13, 1929 VARIETY The Supreme American Dancers ANTONIO and NINA DE MARCO Were the Sensation ofi Chicago Last Week At R. K. O. Palace CHICAGO "EVENING POST" By C. J. Bulliet "The De Marcos, Nina and Tonj', furnish the 'class' for the show, with their familiar dances, this time accompanied by two pianists, a m%n and a girl. The De Marcos shine by virtue of the fact they are a little more expert In the timing than rival dancing teams—a little more perfect In their rhythms." "VARIETY" "Finishing the first half were Tony and Nina De Marco, dancers* accompanied by Bobby Roth and Hlldegarde Sell at twin pianos. Backed by a class full-stage setting and displaying notable orginality in routines, the De Marcos are pre- senting a stand-but dance act for vaudeville." CHICAGO "DA ILY J O U R N A L" By Virginia Dale "But while the close-ups and the fade-outs provide their reward to the chosen few, others, like the De Marcos, do not step out of vaude- ville. The De Marcos are one rea- son for vaudeville, as a matter of fj^ct. They are one of the few cou- ples surviving the flood of ballroom dancers, and they perform with a gracious, fluid grace and charming rhythm that sets them so far above the average trippers they might well be called the Pavlowas of their kind." "ZIT'S" **Tlie De Marcos are assisted by Bobby Roth and Hlldegarde Sell, piano accompanists. They play two numbers while the team makes their changes. The Do Marcos do four dances. It Is a pleasure to watch them, for every move Is the per.sonlffcatlon of gracefulness. None of that thrilling stufC of adagio and other breath-taking af- fairs, but something that makes the fans remark, 'Isn't that graceful?' which covers a lot of territory."
