All indications point to the largest season in the history of the Victoria which will begin next Monday presenting for the opening week Guy Johnson one of the best known vaudeville artists ever seen in Wilmington in the show presented by Elsie Johnson and her Musical Vaudeville Company. Johnson’s Musical Comedy and Vaudeville Company carry more special effects and more musical numbers with electrical effects than any popular priced show which has ever toured the South. A total of fifteen song hits is a feature of their show. Guy Johnson in blackface has never been excelled, and George West and Harry Myers who do many turns together are real sure enough Keith vaudeville performers and it is said their performance alone is worth the price of admission.
