Musical Sketch Leads at Keith's

George Whiting and Gadie Burt are the headliners at Keith's this week, in a miniature operetta entitled "Little Miss Melody." This musical sketch alternates song and dance numbers with good effect: the nine members of the company, impersonating the spirit of Jazz, Harmony, Melody, and other characteristics of tune, succeed in keeping the audience continually interested. The costumes and scenery are more than usually elaborate.

A comedy-drama, "The Guiding Star," affords Laura Pierpont and her players a chance for some good acting. Miss Pierpont is a versatile principal and secures considerable applause. Ruth Roye, an adopt in the art of syncopation, and Rolls and Royce, with their dancing specialty, are others that contribute materially to the bill. The program further consists of the two Rozellas, in "a musical stew"; Walter Weems, in a humorous monologue; Nolan and Nolan, "the Jesting Swedes"; and finally the Four Lamy Brothers in a series of clever and difficult gymnastic tricks.
