Funny Folks Coming to Chicago Vaudeville Week
The Heart of Chicago melodrama adapts to vaudeville at Pantages with a train-scene scenic effect. Acts include La Scala Sextet, five Florimonds on ladders, and the tenth Iron Claw episode on screen. Wilkes Players present Mrs Wickes of the Cabbage Patch at Orpheum with notable cast. Palace Hip opens Sunday with Comedy and music, Lillian Watson songs, Dog Town Revue at Hippodrome, and The Eye of God Blue Bird film.
