Social Union Vaudeville Show at 8

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

The fourth annual vaudeville show for the benefit of the Cambridge Social Union, given last night in Brattle Hall, will be repeated at 8 o'clock this evening.

The program includes a variety of fancy dances in English, French and Italian settings, in which W. S. Weeks '06, M. S. Winpenny '08 and B. Hall '07 take part. There are several short burlesques, with H. D. Chandler '06 as an English lord in search of an American wife and W. P. Blodget '07 as a phonograph. The final piece, "Pagliacci in 2000 A.D.", written and staged by S. Baird '03, is a versatile skit on the future development of the opera. Assisted by R. Nichols '05, Baird acts the chief part in an attractive fashion. The costumes are appropriate to unusual personages, the properties go a long way toward satisfying any desire for the unexpected. Striking turns and impersonations of well-known stage characters, such as Caruso or Houdini, add to the novelty.

During the intermission refreshments will be sold by the ushers, and after the performance a dance will be held.

Tickets, at $1.50, $1 and 75 cents, are on sale at Sever's and Herrick's, or may be obtained at the door.
