Keith's Has Several Amusing Acts

By C. E. G. jr.

There are two or three acts at Keith's this week, each of which are worthy of being featured. These stand out above the others, which are, however, enough above the average to round out the performance, hence eliminating the low spots.

Tom Patricola has one of the funniest acts seen in vaudeville for years, his method of telling jokes making any imitation of him almost a sacrilege. He falls down and knocks himself about with such subtlety that any suspicion of slapstick or horseplay is done away with.

Leo Carrillo and Fay Marbe are stars from familiar musical comedies, who now have acts of their own. Carrillo is especially good in his Chinese imitations and stories and Fay Marbe as a Mexican dancing girl. The exhibition of Spanish dancing is pleasantly extended in another part of the program by the Cansinos, who execute dances of great beauty with grace and vigour. Their setting is very effective.

It is a pity that the short play is not a long one. It is really funny and frequently calls for clever acting. This requirement is supplied and it should prove to be the starting point of at least one star.
