GAYETY—“White and Black Revue.” A packed house greeted Jack Reed's mixed company of comedians, dancers, singers and jazzmaniacs at the Gayety Theater last night. The show is entitled the “White and Black Revue,” and is ‘divided into two distinct sections of entertain- ment, the first part being taken by white performers, and after inter- mission the stage Is turned over to | the colored portion of the company.

STAR, WASHINGTON, first phrt of the entertainment is Will Ferry's impersonation of a frog. This act has been seen for some time in the high-class vaudeville circuits and is a wonderful exhibition of the skill of the contortionist. Drake and Walker's company of colored performers wind up the show with a veritable whirlwind of jazz playing and dancing. The “Charles- ton” as it is danced in its native haunts is demonstrated by Alta Oates and a chorus of dusky steppers. The Southern negro and his comedy is well done by Henry Drake and S&mbo Reid. A colored orchestra dispenses the jazz tunes. MUTUAL—"Hotsy Totsy Girls. _ Arthur Page, one of the best co- medians in modern burlesque, this season, has his own show on the Mu- tual wheel, to which he has given the rather meaningless title of “Hotsy Totsy Girls.” This attraction, pl ing this week at the Mutual, is he one of the best shows on it. It is certainly the best| heen seen at the Avenue playhouse this season. Page, an eccentric comedian, spe- ializes in impersonations of odd and dmmuu humorous characters. His partner, Johnnie Weber, is a fine character comedian, and the two leave but little to be desired in fun- making Nan Haven, prima donna, has a good voice and dramatic abil- ity. Helen Downs is the dimunitive L 1343 F Street D. C, ingenue, and Kitty Smith, the sou- brette, with Tom Philips as straight man. “Hotsy Tot: is individualistic. There is a dearth of dancing, some of the jokes are moth-eaten, but the acts are entirely new. The school- room scene and the lunchroom slaughter by a bold, bad, two-gun man are really good.
