Jack and Jill headline at Gibson's Standard Theatre
James Austin reports from The Observer on the Gibson's Standard bill featuring Jack and Jill acrobats and Miss Jill's supple act. The show includes trapeze, a table and chair, and lively acts by Johnson and Seilman and the May and May duo. May Stringbeans and Sweety May join for a forthcoming musical heavy. The Lafayette Theatre managers sign May and Sweety for Happy Days, a three act eight scene production with a big chorus set to tour North and South this summer. The closing musical comedy The Mayor of Newton by Whitney Tutt and Thompson provides additional laughs with unusually good characters.
